  • Leverage AWS-native services to build event-driven and scalable automation solutions.
  • Collaborate with Infrastructure, Architecture, Cybersecurity, Information Security, and engineering teams.
  • Work within an Agile, sprint-based development environment.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of overall IT/software engineering experience.
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS infrastructure and cloud automation.
  • Strong Python development experience - mandatory.

  • Experience developing scalable, reusable automation frameworks and scripts.
  • Strong engineering and problem-solving mindset
