The ideal candidate will have a passion for continual improvement, automation tools, and building the next-big-thing. We need an enabler (force multiplier) and someone who asks questions, rather than an order follower. Preferred skills are Cloud developing and deploying serverless applications and infrastructure, using NodeJS and terraform. In this role, you will work collaboratively with the software engineering teams to automate the creation of cloud resources and software artifacts, automate the testing of those artifacts, and then automate the deployment and automate monitoring of the applications running in the cloud. You will also troubleshoot issues with infrastructure-as-code, the cloud network, and deployment of cloud resources. Note that this is NOT an SRE or traditional infra admin role. Duties:Developing and testing new features for the enterprise cloud platform and participating in code reviews for the platform. Assist multiple software development teams with building and deploying cloud-native applications and infrastructure via IaC.Automate the creation of new cloud resources, with monitoring built in. Promote Cloud, Security and DevOps best practices and DevOps culture.
