About the job
Job role: DevOps Engineer ( W2 only)
Job location: Remote
We are seeking an experienced DevOps for a long-term contract engagement to support the design, implementation, and operation of cloud infrastructure supporting robotics systems. This role focuses on building scalable AWS-based infrastructure, developing automation solutions, and maintaining high operational reliability across the technology stack.
The ideal candidate can onboard quickly, work independently, and move at a senior-engineer pace. While strong software engineering fundamentals are required, much of the hands-on development will be centered around AWS Lambda–based services and supporting automation
Key Responsibilities:
• Design, build, and maintain cloud infrastructure to support client-facing robotics systems
• Develop and maintain automation solutions using AWS-native services, including Lambda
• Implement and manage infrastructure as code and CI/CD pipelines
• Monitor system health, performance, and reliability across distributed systems
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to cloud infrastructure, networking, and operating systems
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure operational excellence
• Apply senior-level software engineering practices, including code quality, testing, and documentation
Core Requirements:
• 5+ years of experience in systems engineering, software development, DevOps, or related roles
• Strong hands-on experience with AWS services, including EC2, S3, Lambda, CloudWatch, and CloudFormation
• Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code solutions
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex issues across distributed systems and cloud environments
• Strong software engineering proficiency in Python or Go
• Demonstrated experience automating operational tasks and implementing monitoring and alerting solutions
Highly Desirable Qualifications:
• Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, or ECS
• Familiarity with infrastructure automation frameworks such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or AWS CDK
• Experience implementing observability practices, including metrics, logging, and tracing
• Working knowledge of cloud security best practices and compliance considerations
• Experience testing, deploying, and monitoring robotic systems or robotics-adjacent software
• Demonstrated track record of delivering AWS-based solutions with measurable business or operational impact
