• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver robust, compliant, and high-performing solutions.
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years' experience, with advanced expertise in AWS services including IAM, VPC, ECS/EKS, Lambda, Step Functions, CloudWatch, and API Gateway.
• Strong skills in Terraform (modules, workspaces, state management, testing practices).
• Proficiency in Python or Java for Lambda; experience with Docker and CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions or Jenkins).
• Solid understanding of networking, security best practices, and compliance frameworks.
  
  

Nice to Have

• AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional or Specialty certifications.
• Experience with AWS Bedrock models and agent orchestration (Agent Core).
• Background in AI/ML services, automation, and performance optimization.
