[Hiring] AWS Developer/Dev Ops Manager @Catalyst Consulting Group

Role Description

We are looking for a Senior AWS Developer/DevOps to join our team to help build, maintain, and optimize our cloud development ecosystem. You won’t just be writing functions; you will be architecting resilient, event-driven systems and building the "paved road" for our development team through robust Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and CI/CD automation.

Key Responsibilities

• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Develop repeatable, version-controlled infrastructure environments (e.g., OpenTofu, Terraform, Terragrunt).
• Architect AWS Cloud Solutions: Design and implement highly scalable services using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, S3, Step Functions as well as non-serverless AWS.
• Automate Everything: Build and refine CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to ensure seamless, safe, and automated deployments.
• Collaborate & Mentor: Drive technical best practices, conduct code reviews, and help elevate the team’s cloud proficiency.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in cloud-native software development, with a deep focus on the AWS ecosystem.
• Deep AWS knowledge, with a proven track record of optimizing Lambda performance, designing RESTful APIs via API Gateway, and managing lifecycle policies in S3.
• Experience implementing complex business logic using Step Functions.
• IaC Proficiency, with a demonstrated ability to define infrastructure as code. You treat your infrastructure like application code — it’s tested, versioned, and modular.
• CI/CD expertise, with comfortability writing custom GitHub Actions workflows that include automated linting, security scanning, and multi-stage deployments.
• A growth mindset, where you value simplicity, "fail-fast" development, and documentation. You aren't just looking to write code; you're looking to build systems that run themselves.

Benefits

• Salary range of $140,000-$170,000*
• Flexible, remote-first work environment (company headquartered in Chicago)
• Paid Time Off
• Company-provided computer (Mac or PC, depending on preference)
• Home office set-up assistance
• Virtual and in-person social events
• Training & certification reimbursement
• Professional opportunities at fast-growing company with a sky-is-the-limit mindset
