Were looking for a hands-on AWS Cloud Engineer to join an engineering team building cloud-native applications and internal platforms.
This is a great opportunity for an engineer who enjoys writing clean code, automating infrastructure and building production-grade software on AWS. Youll work across serverless, event-driven architectures, infrastructure as code and CI/CD, taking ownership of your work from design and development through to deployment and monitoring.
What youll be doing
- Design, build and maintain serverless applications using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, SQS and SNS
- Develop clean, maintainable and well-tested TypeScript / Node.js services
- Build RESTful and event-driven APIs across microservices and distributed workloads
- Own features end-to-end, from requirements and design through to testing, deployment and incident response
- Design and manage AWS infrastructure using CDK, CloudFormation or Terraform
- Build and improve CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions or similar
- Implement monitoring, alerting and observability across production environments
- Work with AWS IAM, secrets management and security best practices
- Collaborate with product, platform and DevOps teams to deliver scalable engineering solutions
- Contribute to technical design, documentation, runbooks and architectural decisions
What were looking for
Youll ideally have strong hands-on experience with:
- Node.js and/or TypeScript, alongside modern JavaScript
- AWS, particularly Lambda, DynamoDB, S3 and IAM
- Infrastructure as Code using AWS CDK, CloudFormation or Terraform
- Automated testing, ideally Jest
- CI/CD tooling such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions or CircleCI
- REST APIs and event-driven architectures
- Cloud security fundamentals including IAM, least privilege and secrets management
- Agile software engineering and full lifecycle delivery
Nice to have
Experience with any of the following would be a bonus:
- React or another modern frontend framework
- Java, Go, C#, Rust or another strongly typed language
- Internal developer platforms or shared engineering services
- AWS Connect, voice, telephony or contact centre technologies
- Event streaming technologies such as Kinesis, EventBridge, Kafka or SQS/SNS
Why this role?
Youll be joining a team where you can have genuine ownership over the technology you build, working across software engineering, cloud infrastructure and automation rather than being siloed into one area. xiskglj
If youre an AWS engineer who enjoys writing code, building serverless platforms and automating everything you can, this could be a great next step.
