[Hiring] Cloud Engineer @Allied Technology Services

Role Description

We’re looking for an experienced Cloud Engineer with strong, proven hands-on experience managing production cloud infrastructure, primarily on AWS. This role focuses on core Cloud Engineering responsibilities, including:

• Cloud infrastructure management
• Windows Server administration
• SQL Server operations
• Troubleshooting
• Security
• Production reliability

We’re looking for a seasoned Cloud Engineer—not someone with only recent or limited cloud exposure, or a predominantly DevOps background. Recent, hands-on experience with both Windows and SQL Server is essential.

Qualifications

• Substantial, proven professional experience in Cloud Engineering, managing production environments.
• Strong practical knowledge of AWS cloud infrastructure and services.
• Recent hands-on experience with Windows Server and IIS.
• Recent hands-on experience administering and troubleshooting SQL Server.
• Experience with Terraform or CloudFormation and production troubleshooting.
• Scripting skills in PowerShell, Python, or Bash, plus working knowledge of T-SQL.
• Technical skills must be demonstrated through actual work experience—not just listed on a resume.
• A background focused on Cloud Engineering, with DevOps experience as a complement rather than the primary specialization.
• Advanced English and Spanish communication skills.
• Availability for US Eastern business hours, scheduled after-hours releases, and urgent production incidents when required.

Requirements

• Manage and troubleshoot AWS infrastructure, including VPC, networking, IAM, EC2, S3, RDS, ECS, and Fargate.
• Provision and manage cloud resources using Terraform and/or CloudFormation.
• Administer Windows Server, IIS, patching, and application services.
• Perform SQL Server operations, including database provisioning, permissions, backups, restores, maintenance, and release scripts.
• Troubleshoot production incidents across cloud infrastructure, Windows, and database environments.
• Support production releases, disaster recovery, monitoring, security, and infrastructure automation.
• Improve CI/CD pipelines and operational processes.

Benefits

• Fully remote work from Latin America.
• Fixed monthly compensation of US$3,500.
• Full-time contractor agreement.
• Work aligned with US Eastern business hours.
• The opportunity to contribute to cloud infrastructure modernization and production reliability.
