About the role

We're looking for a hands-on AWS Solutions Architect to bridge the gap between high-level enterprise cloud strategy and elite software engineering. You will write clean code, model distributed databases, and directly launch production-grade Minimum Viable Products (MVPs).

Responsibilities

MVP Software & Cloud Engineering: Move rapidly from whiteboard diagrams to writing production-ready code. Ship fully realized, high-availability MVPs directly into cloud environments.
System Design & Governance: Architect secure, multi-account AWS environments.

GenAI-Driven Development: Integrate GenAI assistant tools seamlessly into daily workflows to expedite Infrastructure as Code (IaC) creation, code generation, troubleshooting, and architectural optimization.
CICD Automation: Build and manage continuous integration and deployment pipelines using tools like Jenkins.
Security & IAM: Enforce least-privilege access, Service Control Policies (SCPs), and compliance frameworks across the enterprise.
Modern Data Modeling & Strategy: Architect multi-region data layers matching the right database to the right workload. Build scalable transactional systems across relational, non-relational, and next-generation serverless distributed technologies.
Optimization & Troubleshooting: Drive cloud cost optimization (FinOps) and perform deep technical troubleshooting during system outages.

Requirements

10+ years in IT/software engineering, with at least 3-5 years focused directly on AWS cloud platforms.
Strong coding ability in Java, Python, Bash, or TypeScript.
Demonstrated ability using GenAI assistants or LLM developer tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, or Claude) to accelerate code generation, rewrite legacy scripts, automate documentation, and debug infrastructure deployment failures.
Hands-on engineering with Amazon ECS (Fargate/EC2) and Amazon EKS.
Core networking and compute mastery: VPC, EC2, Lambda, and IAM.
Relational: Deep expertise in PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS, or Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL performance tuning and connection pooling.
NoSQL: Advanced data modeling using Amazon DynamoDB (single-table design, GSIs, DynamoDB Streams).
Distributed SQL: Practical exposure or design utilizing Amazon Aurora DSQL for active-active, multi-region scalability.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent industry experience).

Qualifications
