Qualifications
The ideal candidate will possess extensive experience across multiple domains within cloud and infrastructure engineering. You should have a deep understanding of AWS services, with broad knowledge spanning the entire ecosystem rather than siloed expertise. Strong fundamentals in Linux are essential, complemented by solid networking skills and an understanding of distributed architectures.

Additionally, familiarity with containerized workloads using Docker, ECS, or Kubernetes, along with proficiency in infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, is highly desirable. Strong scripting skills in Bash, Python, Go, or similar languages are also required. Candidates with experience in supporting incident response, monitoring, logging, and observability will be preferred.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement robust, scalable, and secure cloud infrastructure on AWS to support production workloads.
- Lead the migration of legacy systems into modern, cloud-native architectures, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum efficiency.
- Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform or comparable tools to automate deployment processes.
- Enhance system reliability, observability, and cost-efficiency through continuous improvements and optimizations.
