Cloud Developer

Essent is adding a Senior Cloud Developer to its Radnor-based technology team. This is a hands-on individual contributor role - the team is building development capacity, not adding management. The successful candidate will design, build, and support cloud applications and automation across an all-AWS infrastructure footprint, working closely with counterparts across the IT organization.

• 5+ years of hands-on Python development in a production environment
• Deep AWS services experience, including Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB, EC2, Glue, Kinesis, IAM, ELB, and VPC
• Infrastructure-as-code experience with CDK or Terraform
• Boto3 SDK
• Strong AWS cloud fundamentals across both test and production environments
• Automated unit testing and integration testing
• Experience with AI coding assistants; Kiro preferred
• Collaborative working style suited to a team environment rather than siloed, heads-down work, * AWS Cloud Practitioner or Developer Associate certification
• Experience ingesting large data volumes
• Application monitoring and load testing
• Prior development experience in financial services or real estate

Additional Notes

• Infrastructure is entirely AWS. No Azure hosting.
• Certifications are preferred rather than required at the time of hire; Essent supports and encourages certification for developers on staff.
• Single-round interview weighted toward technical depth, followed by platform and tool experience, then team fit.
