About the Gig
Our client is on a mission to move everything that isn’t nailed down (and a few things that are) from on-prem to the cloud by mid-2026. Think containers, VMs, and a whole lot of AWS magic. If you love automation, secure design, and making things run smoother than a barista’s flat white, this is your stage.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Migration Magic: Shift IaaS to PaaS like a pro and make EC2 environments sing.
  • Ops Excellence: Patch, log, monitor, back up, and keep vulnerabilities at bay.
  • Container Craftsmanship: Help move workloads from OpenShift to AWS (ECR, ECS, EKS, Fargate).
  • Collaboration: Work with cloud, app, and security teams to keep everything secure and scalable.
  • Knowledge Sharing: Document, automate, and teach others your wizardry.
What We’re Looking For
  • AWS SysOps experience (you know your EC2 from your EKS).
  • Container know-how (AWS and OpenShift).
  • Linux and Windows admin chops, plus scripting skills (Python, Bash).
  • Familiarity with AWS tools like Patch Manager, Inspector, Systems Manager, and monitoring via CloudWatch.
  • Solid grasp of networking, IAM, and security best practices.
  • Bonus points if you speak fluent “Well-Architected Framework.”
Your Superpowers
  • Self-starter who thrives on responsibility.
  • Problem-solver with a knack for designing elegant solutions.
  • Great communicator who plays well with others.
  • Agile mindset (and not just the yoga kind).
Why You’ll Love It
  • Work on a high-impact program with a clear finish line.
  • Flexibility and a supportive team environment.
  • Plenty of opportunities to show off your cloud chops.
Ready to help us make the leap to AWS? Apply now and let’s get this cloud party started!
