  • Work with core AWS services such as EC2, S3, RDS, VPC, IAM, Route 53, load balancers, CloudWatch, and CloudTrail.
  • Administer Linux-based systems and support configuration, patching, upgrades, performance tuning, backups, and lifecycle management.
  • Monitor availability, capacity, performance, security, and cloud spend; recommend and implement practical improvements.
  • Help maintain resilient architectures through backups, recovery procedures, high-availability patterns, and operational readiness.

Automation, Infrastructure as Code & Delivery

  • Provision and manage cloud resources using Terraform and/or AWS CloudFormation.
  • Create and maintain reusable infrastructure templates that improve consistency across environments.
  • Automate routine operational tasks using Python, Bash, AWS CLI, Lambda, or similar tools.
  • Support and improve CI/CD pipelines and release workflows using tools such as Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline, CodeBuild, GitHub Actions, or comparable platforms.
  • Support containerized applications using Docker and Kubernetes services such as Amazon EKS or ECS.

Monitoring, Security & Production Support

  • Implement and maintain monitoring, alerting, dashboards, and centralized logging to identify issues before they affect customers.
  • Troubleshoot cloud, networking, Linux, database, deployment, and application-platform issues; escalate and collaborate as needed.
  • Participate in incident response, including diagnosis, mitigation, root cause analysis, and follow-up remediation.
  • Apply AWS security best practices across IAM, networking, encryption, logging, vulnerability remediation, and access management.
  • Support compliance-driven environments and assist with evidence collection, documentation, and security-control implementation.
  • Create and maintain runbooks, architecture documentation, operational procedures, and knowledge-base content.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation as required.

Required Qualifications

  • 3-5 years of experience in Cloud Engineering, Cloud Operations, DevOps, Systems Engineering, or a related infrastructure role.
  • Hands-on experience building and supporting AWS environments in production.
  • Working knowledge of AWS networking, including VPCs, subnets, routing, security groups, VPN connectivity, and load balancing.
  • Experience with key AWS services such as EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, CloudWatch, and CloudTrail.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and/or CloudFormation.
  • Strong Linux administration and troubleshooting skills.
  • Experience automating operational tasks with Bash, Python, AWS CLI, or similar scripting tools.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD concepts and modern source-control workflows.
  • Ability to troubleshoot production issues methodically and communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • US Citizenship is required for access to AWS GovCloud environments.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with AWS GovCloud or other regulated cloud environments.
  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Amazon EKS, or Amazon ECS.
  • Familiarity with PostgreSQL or other relational databases, including backups, performance monitoring, and basic troubleshooting.
