This position is for a DevOps engineer who designs proactive infrastructure solutions rather than reactive firefighting. If you find satisfaction in analyzing complex legacy systems, architecting more effective architectures, and eliminating manual processes through automation, this role aligns with your expertise. We require a DevOps and AWS infrastructure specialist who excels under pressure, delivering 99.9% uptime as a baseline expectation. Your work will span multiple acquired products, each presenting unique technical challenges, as you migrate them into a unified, scalable AWS infrastructure while implementing monitoring and automation systems that minimize incident frequency.Unlike typical organizations that assign you to a single technology stack, we challenge you to unify and enhance multiple stacks without service disruption. Where conventional approaches isolate databases, our strategy involves deliberate consolidation to achieve cost efficiency and streamlined management across our entire portfolio. This role does not suit those seeking to maintain static infrastructure; it requires someone who identifies fragmented, inconsistent environments and immediately envisions superior alternatives.Your ownership will encompass infrastructure migrations, AI-powered automation, performance optimization, database transitions, and cost management. This includes troubleshooting and resolving existing issues, planning and executing cloud migrations with minimal downtime, and developing AI/ML-driven workflows that automate substantial portions of operational tasks. You will possess genuine decision-making authority over infrastructure—no delays waiting for approval from stakeholders lacking technical depth.If you are a self-directed problem-solver who excels at systematizing complex environments and ensuring flawless operation, this position offers significant opportunity. If you require substantial guidance, struggle with diverse technology stacks, or prefer greenfield projects over transforming chaotic systems into order, this role will not satisfy you. If you are prepared to assume ownership of a high-impact infrastructure position with extensive opportunities to build, optimize, and automate at enterprise scale, submit your application now!
What You Will Be Doing
- Planning and executing sophisticated infrastructure transitions, including migrations from legacy platforms to AWS cloud environments and lift-and-shift operations
- Architecting and deploying monitoring strategies and creating automation for monitoring systems, software deployment pipelines, and operational processes
- Conducting system monitoring, backup operations, incident management, database migrations, database configuration, and cost optimization initiatives
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Spending your time in Jira and prolonged status meetings - we prioritize individuals who deliver solutions, not merely document issues
- Perpetually maintaining legacy systems - you will be authorized to implement substantial improvements
- Encountering bureaucratic approval obstacles - you will possess the authority to implement immediate resolutions during incidents
- Operating within restrictive technical boundaries - this position demands both comprehensive and specialized knowledge
- Justifying budget allocation for essential improvements - we recognize the strategic value of infrastructure investment
AWS Architect Key Responsibilities
- Advance reliability and standardization of cloud infrastructure throughout our expanding product portfolio through deployment of comprehensive monitoring, automation, and AWS best practices.
Basic Requirements
- Extensive AWS infrastructure expertise (this is our core platform - experience with other cloud providers alone is insufficient)
- Proficient programming capabilities in Python or JavaScript for developing automation and tooling
- Proven experience managing and migrating production databases across multiple engines (including MySql, Postgres, Oracle, MS-SQL)
- Expert-level Docker/Kubernetes proficiency
- Demonstrated experience with infrastructure automation (Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation)
- Linux systems administration proficiency
