Cloud Operations Manager

About the Team

You will be joining a small, newly formed but highly visible Business Operations Team. This group is tasked with leading and delivering the most strategic and high-impact initiatives in the company's history. These projects are complex, high-priority, and carry multi-million dollar budgets. As a key driving force, you will turn bold ideas into action and action into results.

Peterson Technology Partners (PTP) has operated for more than 28 years as one of the top IT staffing and recruiting firms in the USA. Built on trust, long-term partnerships, and technical excellence, our team of over 500 employees and consultants is dedicated to helping clients make the best hiring decisions and matching professionals with the right IT jobs. Based in Park Ridge, IL, we focus on putting people first—candidates, consultants, employees, and clients.

About the Role

The Cloud Operations Manager serves as the key leader for the day-to-day operations, reliability, and performance of cloud-based infrastructure and services. In this role, you will establish operational best practices and ensure cloud environments remain secure, scalable, and cost-effective. You will collaborate closely with engineering, security, and business stakeholders to support continuous availability, incident response, change management, and ongoing optimization of cloud platforms in alignment with organizational goals.

Hiring Process

To ensure a consistent, fair, and flexible experience for all candidates, PTP utilizes AI-assisted tools to support parts of the interview process. Our proprietary AI platform, Pete & Gabi (including AI recruiter Rebecca), may be used to conduct recorded video interviews, transcribe responses, and generate insights. Please note that AI does not make hiring decisions, evaluate facial expressions, or assess physical traits; all final decisions are made by human recruiters, hiring managers, or client partners.

Depending on the role, you may also participate in technical interviews, coding challenges, case studies, or client-specific assessments. We will always explain what to expect in advance so you can prepare with confidence.

Your Rights as a Candidate:

• Request a non-AI interview path.
• Ask how your data is being used.
• Request access to transcripts or interview recordings.
• Request deletion of your AI-recorded interview.
• Receive clear, timely communication.

Every candidate's profile, including interviews and assessments, is reviewed by experienced recruiters and hiring leaders. AI insights may assist with organization, but final decisions are always human-driven.
