DevOps Engineer, AWS Software

Job Description

Senior AWS Software & DevOps Engineer — Hands-On Startup Role

\n

\n

We’re a fast-moving technology startup looking for a Senior AWS Software & DevOps Engineer who wants to build, not manage from the sidelines .

\n

\n

This is a combined Software Engineering and DevOps role . We’re a small, highly technical team, and DevOps isn’t a separate department—it’s directly embedded in our software development lifecycle and engineering team .

\n

\n

This is a 100% hands-on-keyboard role . No slide decks. No paper pushing. No layers of process. You’ll design and build backend services, create and maintain cloud infrastructure, automate deployments, troubleshoot production issues, and work side-by-side with our software engineers throughout the entire SDLC.

Location: Hazlet, NJ

What We're Looking For

\n

We’re looking for someone senior enough to own problems end-to-end , but who still loves writing code, building infrastructure, digging through logs, improving CI/CD, troubleshooting production systems, and figuring things out.

\n

You should have strong hands-on experience with AWS and Infrastructure as Code , specifically using tools such as CloudFormation and AWS CDK , along with the ability to script and automate using Python and Bash .

\n

Because we’re a small company, there is no wall between development and DevOps . The same engineers who build our products help architect, deploy, operate, monitor, and improve them. You’ll be an integral part of that team.

\n

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants broad exposure, real responsibility, and the ability to learn, grow, and have a direct impact on the products and technology we build .

\n

\n

If you’re an experienced AWS engineer who enjoys both software development and cloud infrastructure—and would rather build things than talk about building things—we’d love to meet you.
