Amazon Connect Developer

Amazon Connect Developer

100% Remote

6 Month Contract

** Unable to Provide Sponsorship or Do C2C**

Objective

Southern Glazer's is replacing a fragmented telephony stack (a standalone CTI plugin and Cisco voice) with Salesforce Service Cloud Voice, which runs on Amazon Connect underneath. We need a senior engineer who can build that Amazon-side foundation from scratch: contact flows, the API layer, and the database schema behind them. This is a build, not a maintenance seat. You'll make the architectural calls yourself, ship them through infrastructure-as-code, and carry the pager for what you put in production. You'll work mostly on the AWS side, collaborate closely with the Salesforce voice product owner and admins on the CTI integration, and sit shoulder-to-shoulder with client employees on a blended team. Prior experience on a migration off legacy CTI is a strong plus, since you'll be retiring one.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build Amazon Connect contact flows, routing profiles, queues, and CCP configuration from the ground up for multi-skill, priority-based routing.
• Architect REST APIs on API Gateway backed by Lambda for real-time lookups, screen-pops, and business-system integration.
• Design relational schemas on RDS (PostgreSQL/MySQL) for interaction metadata, history, and reporting, and write and tune the SQL on top of them.
• Build and troubleshoot the Amazon-side CTI layer that bridges to Salesforce Service Cloud Voice, in partnership with the Salesforce product owner and admins.
• Codify all infrastructure in OpenTofu/Terraform — IAM roles, security policies, cross-account boundaries included.
• Implement asynchronous, event-driven patterns with EventBridge, SNS, and SQS.
• Instrument the platform with CloudWatch logs, alarms, and dashboards; set SLOs and alert thresholds that fire before users notice.
• Own production support and incident management for the platform: on-call rotation, RCA, log investigation, permanent fixes.
• Translate routing requirements from operations and workforce management into working contact flow logic.
• Document architecture, runbooks, and integration contracts.

Required

• 5–6+ years of hands-on AWS development, with 3+ directly on Amazon Connect: contact flows, routing profiles, queues, CCP, telephony configuration.
• Has built a contact center or telephony solution from scratch, not just extended someone else's.
• Strong REST API design, resource modeling, versioning, auth, idempotency (plus hands-on API Gateway and Lambda.)
• Relational schema design on RDS (PostgreSQL or MySQL), solid SQL, query performance troubleshooting.
• Basic-to-working Salesforce Service Cloud literacy. You don't need to be a Salesforce developer; you do need to understand Service Cloud Voice and hold up your end of the integration conversation.
• S3, EventBridge, SNS/SQS, CloudWatch.
• OpenTofu or Terraform, including IAM and security policy authoring.
• Production support background: on-call, incident response, RCA, log-based investigation.
• Contact center and telephony fundamentals: ACD, IVR, skills-based routing, SIP, call recording, CTI.
• Comfortable owning architecture decisions and pushing back on weak requirements.

Preferred

• Migration experience off legacy CTI platforms (Ingenious and Cisco voice specifically.)
• Salesforce Service Cloud Voice integration experience beyond the basic requirement.
• AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, Developer).
• Experience in a cost-constrained enterprise; beverage alcohol, CPG, or distribution a bonus.
• CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and Lambda deployment.
