Remote AWS Cloud Engineer

Introduction: Shape the Future of Cloud Innovation

Imagine architecting cloud solutions that not only keep global businesses running smoothly but also set new standards for reliability and scalability. As a Remote AWS Cloud Engineer, you’ll be part of a forward-thinking team that trusts you to transform complex infrastructure challenges into streamlined, high-impact systems. Your technical vision and hands-on approach will directly influence how products evolve and how organizations thrive. Here, your voice is heard—your decisions shape onboarding workflows that reduce friction and create seamless experiences for users everywhere.

Your Mission: Architect, Automate, and Elevate

Every day brings a new opportunity to build a cloud infrastructure that’s robust, cost-efficient, and ready for the next leap. You’ll craft scalable environments, automate deployments, and optimize application performance for platforms serving thousands of users worldwide. Your skills will ensure data is secure, services are resilient, and new features launch without a hitch. Whether it’s optimizing resource allocation, tuning CI/CD pipelines, or leading cloud migrations, your technical influence will fuel growth and stability for diverse product teams.

Key Responsibilities That Drive Outcomes

Build and Optimize Cloud Infrastructure

Design cloud-native architectures on AWS that support rapid development cycles. From VPC design to autoscaling groups, your choices improve both performance and cost efficiency.

Champion Security and Compliance

Embed security into every layer—automate identity management, ensure encrypted traffic, and uphold industry standards. You’ll partner with security specialists to develop threat-resistant systems that meet global compliance needs.

Automate Deployment and Operations

Reduce manual effort through Infrastructure-as-Code. Using tools like Terraform and CloudFormation, you’ll turn complex infrastructure into repeatable, reliable processes that empower rapid releases and minimize errors.

Enhance System Monitoring and Reliability

Implement observability solutions with CloudWatch, Datadog, or New Relic. Set up actionable alerts and dashboards so teams can respond proactively and prevent downtime that impacts users.

Lead Cloud Migrations and Upgrades

Orchestrate seamless transitions from on-prem to AWS or across AWS accounts. Your migration playbooks help teams adopt new tools quickly without business disruption.

Collaborate Across Global Teams

Work closely with engineering, product, and support to align technical solutions with user needs. You simplify complex ideas—whether it’s over Zoom or Slack—ensuring everyone moves in sync and feels included in the decision-making process.

Mentor and Level Up Your Peers

Share your knowledge generously, whether through code reviews or technical workshops. You help teammates grow their AWS expertise, and you’re quick to celebrate collective wins.

Tech Stack & Tools That Empower You

You’ll work daily with services like EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS, and DynamoDB—often automating with Python or Bash. Our CI/CD pipelines run on Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or AWS CodePipeline. Infrastructure-as-Code is a must, and you’ll find opportunities to shape workflows in Terraform, CloudFormation, or Ansible. We believe in continuous learning, so you’ll always have access to the latest cloud collaboration tools and professional development resources.

What Sets You Up for Success

  • Deep experience architecting and supporting AWS environments at scale.
  • Mastery of scripting and automation (Python, Bash, or similar).
  • Expertise in infrastructure-as-code and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, or EKS).
  • A knack for balancing cost optimization with performance needs.
  • Practical knowledge of monitoring, logging, and alerting best practices.
  • Commitment to cloud security principles and zero-trust architectures.
  • Passion for helping others understand cloud tech, regardless of their role.
  • An agile mindset: You move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus intensely.

The Remote Work Environment

Your workspace is wherever you are most focused—home, coworking hub, or a quiet mountain café. You’ll partner with design, engineering, and support to build unified solutions that make a global impact. We’re outcome-driven and flexible on hours, trusting you to deliver on goals while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Our collaboration stack includes Slack, Zoom, Notion, and Jira, designed to keep you connected and productive without micromanagement.
