AWS Cloud Engineer

As an AWS Cloud Engineer, you will be responsible for deploying, managing, and securing cloud-based systems. You will work on IT infrastructure, network management, system monitoring, and security compliance while ensuring seamless operations. This role requires hands-on experience with AWS services, Linux and Windows administration, and strong problem-solving skills.

Requirements

• Deploy, manage, and monitor AWS cloud infrastructure to support business operations. (E.g., provisioning EC2 instances, configuring VPCs, and setting up S3 storage solutions.)
• Install and manage Linux and Windows servers on AWS and other cloud environments. (E.g., setting up Amazon EC2 instances with appropriate security groups.)
• Troubleshoot systems and network devices to ensure smooth IT operations. (E.g., diagnosing connectivity issues between AWS resources.)
• Maintain an asset inventory of all hardware, software, and cloud resources. (E.g., tracking AWS resource usage to optimize costs.)
• Perform routine infrastructure monitoring such as system health checks, log analysis, backup and restore operations. (E.g., using AWS CloudWatch and AWS Backup for automated monitoring.)
• Ensure security controls are implemented and maintained on servers and end-user systems. (E.g., configuring AWS IAM policies, Security Groups, and AWS Shield.)
• Manage and maintain in-house web applications and cloud-based deployments. (E.g., hosting and managing applications using AWS Elastic Beanstalk or Lambda.)
• Automate infrastructure deployment using Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or scripting languages like Python, Bash, or PowerShell. (E.g., writing a Terraform script to automate the provisioning of an EC2 instance.)
• Collaborate with DevOps, IT support, and application development teams to optimize cloud performance. (E.g., working with developers to integrate CI/CD pipelines using AWS CodePipeline.)
• Ensure high availability, disaster recovery, and failover strategies for cloud applications. (E.g., setting up multi-AZ deployments for RDS and configuring Route 53 failover policies.)

Requirements

• 0-2 years of experience in AWS cloud engineering, IT infrastructure, or a related role.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• Hands-on experience with AWS services (EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, CloudWatch, Lambda, etc.).
• Proficiency in Linux and Windows server administration within a cloud environment.
• Familiarity with networking concepts, security best practices, and cloud monitoring tools.
• Basic knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform or AWS CloudFormation.
• Exposure to DevOps practices, including CI/CD, containerization (Docker), and orchestration (Kubernetes) is a plus.
• Scripting experience in Python, Bash, or PowerShell is beneficial.
• Excellent problem-solving, troubleshooting, and analytical skills.
• Ability to work independently with limited supervision while collaborating with teams.
