Required Skills: AWS, TypeScript, IoT, Scalability, DynamoDB, Golang

Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to help design, build, and support scalable, cloud-native solutions on AWS. In this role, you’ll work across serverless, event-driven, and IoT-based architectures, partnering closely with delivery teams and clients to turn complex requirements into reliable, high-performing systems. You’ll bring strong technical depth, a builder’s mindset, and a collaborative approach—contributing directly to implementation while helping guide and mentor other engineers as part of successful project delivery.

What You'll Accomplish:

· Design, build, and support cloud-native AWS solutions with a focus on scalability, reliability, and performance.

· Contribute to and support AWS IoT Core–based architectures, integrating device data with backend services.

· Design, develop and maintain scalable serverless applications on AWS Lambda using TypeScript.

· Design and support scalable DynamoDB data models for high-throughput, event-driven workloads.

· Implement and maintain event-driven architectures using Kinesis streams, SNS topics, and S3.

· Support data ingestion, transformation, and analytics workflows leveraging AWS Glue, Athena, and QuickSight.

· Contribute to the evaluation and implementation of AWS Fargate for longer-running or stateful services, including services written in Golang.

· Monitor cloud system performance, identify optimization opportunities, and implement improvements to reliability and cost efficiency.

· Investigate root causes of incidents within distributed systems and document solutions and best practices.

· Implement and maintain security controls aligned with AWS best practices to protect infrastructure and data.

· Provide technical guidance and mentorship to Associate Cloud Engineers as part of project delivery.

· Communicate technical concepts effectively to internal teams and clients, contributing to strong delivery outcomes.

What You'll Bring:

• Strong experience building and supporting AWS-based, cloud-native architectures.
• Hands-on experience with AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and event-driven systems.
• Proficiency in TypeScript; working knowledge of Python for automation and support scripts.
• Exposure to or experience with Golang for backend or service development is a plus.
• Experience working with AWS IoT Core or similar message- and device-driven architectures.
• Familiarity with Kinesis, SNS, and S3 for streaming and asynchronous workflows.
• Experience supporting data and analytics pipelines using tools such as Glue, Athena, and QuickSight.
• Understanding of containerized workloads and managed compute platforms such as AWS Fargate.
• Strong understanding of cloud security principles, including IAM, encryption, and least-privilege access.
• Ability to work independently while managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to scalability and long-term maintainability.
• Collaborative mindset with the ability to mentor, coach, and support other engineers.

Education/Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field OR equivalent practical experience.
• 3–5+ years of experience in cloud engineering, infrastructure, or backend development roles.
• Experience working in AWS-centric environments.
• Relevant AWS certifications are a plus.
