Cloud Software Engineer
About the role
Design and develop cloud-native applications and microservices on AWS. Build scalable, highly available backend systems using modern architecture patterns. Develop and maintain RESTful/GraphQL APIs and event-driven services. Architect distributed systems with focus on reliability, security, scalability, and cost optimization. Implement CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and automated testing. Build observability frameworks including logging, monitoring, and alerting. Optimize system performance, latency, throughput, and resource utilization. Integrate AI/ML or GenAI services (e.g., AWS Bedrock) where applicable to enhance automation or analytics. Collaborate with cross-functional teams including platform, DevOps, data, QA, and business stakeholders.
