Project requirements
The environment must:
• Run in an approved U.S.-based AWS region
• Provide secure Amazon WorkSpaces virtual desktops
• Allow access to EHR systems and payer portals
• Prevent client information from being stored on the user’s local computer
• Restrict file transfer, clipboard use, printing, local drives, and removable devices where technically supported
• Use encryption, MFA, role-based permissions, logging, and monitoring
• Support repeatable onboarding and offboarding of future users
• Be fully documented and transferred to AVP after implementation

Responsibilities
• Review business and client security requirements
• Design the AWS and Amazon WorkSpaces architecture
• Configure AWS networking, IAM, Directory Service, security groups, logging, and encryption
• Configure and secure Amazon WorkSpaces
• Build and test one pilot user
• Validate security restrictions and document any technical limitations
• Create a repeatable process for adding staff in the future
• Provide architecture diagrams, administrator instructions, and user onboarding documentation
• Conduct a knowledge-transfer session
• Provide limited post-launch support

Required experience
• Strong hands-on AWS infrastructure experience
• Experience with AWS VPC, IAM, networking, security groups, CloudTrail, and CloudWatch
• Windows systems administration experience
• Virtual desktop infrastructure experience
• Strong troubleshooting and technical documentation skills
• Excellent written and spoken English

Strongly preferred
• Direct Amazon WorkSpaces deployment experience
• AWS Directory Service or Active Directory experience
• AWS Solutions Architect or SysOps certification
• Healthcare, HIPAA, or other regulated-environment experience
• Experience with Microsoft Entra ID, Azure Virtual Desktop, Citrix, VMware Horizon, or Windows RDS

Project details
• Remote, Philippines-based contractor
• Estimated 30–50 hours
• Immediate availability preferred


How to apply
1. Submit resume and answer the following questions.

Secure WorkSpaces
1. Have you personally deployed Amazon WorkSpaces in a production environment? Describe your role.
2. How many Amazon WorkSpaces users were included in your largest deployment?
3. Which virtual desktop platforms have you personally implemented?
4. How would you prevent data from being transferred from WorkSpaces to a local computer?
5. Have you worked in healthcare, HIPAA, financial services, or another regulated environment?
6. What is your hourly rate and immediate availability?
7. Based on this description, approximately how many hours would you estimate for the implementation?
8. Provide an example of AWS architecture or technical documentation you personally created, with confidential details removed.

Applications that do not answer all eight questions will not be considered. AWS certification without hands-on production experience will not, by itself, qualify an applicant.
