About The Position

We are looking for an experienced Senior AWS Cloud Platform Engineer to join one of our clients and support cloud migration, data platform development, and cross-team technical initiatives. This is a hands-on engineering role combining AWS expertise with practical DevOps, automation, and software development skills. The engineer will work closely with a Senior Application Architect and multiple engineering teams to turn complex or unclear requirements into reliable, production-ready solutions.

The role owns initiatives from initial discovery and technical design through implementation, stabilization, documentation, and handover to teams responsible for ongoing operations. It requires independent decision-making, adaptability, and the ability to balance architectural considerations with hands-on delivery. The position is based in Warsaw, Poland, with a hybrid working arrangement. A standard background check is required before onboarding.

Requirements

• Extensive, recent hands-on experience delivering solutions in AWS production environments.
• Several years of experience in cloud engineering, DevOps, platform engineering, or a similar technical role.
• Strong knowledge of Infrastructure as Code, version control, CI/CD, automated testing, and safe deployment practices.
• Practical experience with scripting, automation, integrations, and application development, including the ability to review application code.
• Experience designing and implementing solutions beyond infrastructure provisioning alone.
• Proven ability to take initiatives from an ambiguous initial stage through implementation, stabilization, and handover.
• Strong technical judgment and the ability to assess trade-offs between security, reliability, cost, complexity, and delivery speed.
• Experience working independently while collaborating effectively across multiple teams and projects.
• Familiarity with current AI-assisted development tools and the ability to apply them responsibly.
• Excellent communication skills, a proactive mindset, and the confidence to challenge and discuss technical decisions constructively.

Nice To Haves

• Experience migrating workloads and platforms from Azure to AWS.
• Knowledge of data lakes, data warehouses, and data engineering technologies such as Amazon S3, AWS Glue, Amazon Redshift, and Azure Synapse.
• Experience building reusable cloud platforms and developer self-service capabilities.
• Familiarity with enterprise security, governance, and compliance requirements.
• Experience in consulting or other cross-team engineering environments.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and implement AWS cloud solutions, including infrastructure, integrations, automation, and application code.
• Build and maintain cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and version-controlled deployment practices.
• Improve CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, deployment processes, and overall engineering efficiency.
• Identify opportunities to improve cloud platforms, developer workflows, reliability, security, and operational processes.
• Evaluate technical alternatives and make pragmatic decisions balancing cost, security, scalability, complexity, and maintainability.
• Develop scripts, integrations, and automation solutions that reduce manual effort and improve consistency.
• Collaborate with architects, engineers, project stakeholders, and business teams across several initiatives.
• Conduct technical reviews, challenge assumptions constructively, and support teams in making informed engineering decisions.
• Use approved AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity and code quality while ensuring outputs are verified and sensitive information is protected.
• Document solutions, share knowledge, and ensure successful handover to the teams responsible for long-term ownership.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work on impactful cloud migration and data platform initiatives.
• Hands-on technical position combining architecture, engineering, and automation.
• Collaboration with experienced architects and engineering teams.
• Ownership of technical solutions from initial design through implementation and knowledge transfer.
• Exposure to diverse technical challenges and opportunities to shape cloud engineering practices.
