Job summary

For this role, we are seeking a solid engineer who can take full end-to-end ownership of cloud projects. Whether you call yourself a Cloud Engineer, a Backend Developer, or have transitioned from a Web Dev or ML background, we are looking for someone who can architect a solution, deploy the infrastructure, build the backend, and keep it running smoothly.

Responsibilities:

Managing and Administrating AWS: Owning AWS accounts and infrastructure (account creation, billing, etc.). You will monitor the state of deployed applications, track what is driving costs, and optimize resources.
Backend Development: Building and maintaining robust backend services and REST APIs, primarily in Python.
Project Management & Scoping: Speaking with management, other developers, and external users to understand requirements. You will prioritize work to address critical needs, carefully scope requests, and know when to push back or defer work.
Troubleshooting: Quickly digging into the application to diagnose and resolve user issues, even when provided with minimal or ambiguous information, and knowing exactly what follow-up questions to ask.
Active, Iterative Development: Navigating fast-paced, ongoing development where requirements can change quickly. You will parse out work efficiently so it can be completed without requiring large, uninterrupted blocks of time.
Observability & Security: Implementing security best practices, supporting other developers who need direct cloud resources, and using observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, etc.) to keep systems healthy.
Leveraging AI: Utilizing modern AI development tools and assistants to accelerate workflows and problem-solving.

Requirements:

Experience: A few years of actual cloud engineering, backend development, or highly related full-stack experience.
AWS Proficiency: Deep experience with core AWS services (EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, ECS) and familiarity with running serverless web apps (Lambda, API Gateway, CloudFront, S3 for static hosting).
Python Proficiency: Strong skills in Python backend development, with an expectation of building proper REST APIs.
Database Proficiency: Solid experience with SQL databases (especially PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (expected familiarity with DynamoDB, MongoDB, etc.).
Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Hands-on experience deploying infrastructure using code (Terraform is preferred, but AWS CloudFormation/CDK is acceptable).
AI Tooling: You are proficient in and open to using modern AI tooling to assist in writing code, debugging, and architecting solutions.
