Requirements

I’m looking to connect with experienced engineers who thrive in cloud-native environments and enjoy building scalable, data-driven applications.

What we’re looking for:

5+ years working with AWS services including Aurora, Postgres, Redshift, S3, DynamoDB, CloudFront, SES, API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, and SAM/CloudFormation

Strong SQL programming expertise

Experience with NestJS and modern front-end development (JavaScript, HTML, CSS)

Familiarity with GitLab (or similar) and CI/CD workflows

Proven track record optimizing data storage, retrieval, performance, and cost efficiency

Experience integrating data from APIs, databases, and streaming platforms into centralized systems (data lakes / warehouses)

Hands-on experience with serverless architectures, DevOps practices, containers, and cloud security

Bonus points for:

Advanced knowledge of data security best practices (encryption, IAM, access controls)

Strong collaboration skills across engineering, product, and business teams

Solid understanding of SDLC, testing, and cloud-based delivery

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, working with modern cloud architectures, and contributing to high-impact systems.
