[Hiring] AWS/Python developer @Shree Narayani Networking Solutions

Role Description

There are 3 openings for this job and another one on the way. That will make a total of 4 openings, 2 have recently been filled but now candidates are failing the second round and people are not finding the true developers, the heavy weight developers. There are different levels of development in cloud and many recruiters fail to understand and master it. If you can master it, there is a lot of money to be made.

Client is Southwest Airlines. Developer position working in the Cloud (They call this role a cloud dev) the key is real dev skills and dev backgrounds.

Client wants a highly experienced AWS/Python developer who still writes code daily, even if their title is Lead or Architect.

Candidates need extensive experience in:

• AWS
• Lambda
• Terraform
• IaC
• System Design knowledge
• Kafka
• API Development
• Cloudwatch
• Strong foundation in cloud technologies – Python, Java, AWS, Lambda, Step Functions

Qualifications

• 15+ years of hands-on AWS cloud engineering experience
• Strategic thinker is a MUST
• Someone with consistent communication and ability to follow through
• AWS certifications (Solutions Architect Professional or DevOps Engineer Professional)

Requirements

This is a hands-on developer role and the candidates should really be aware of this. Some get to me and are surprised to find out. That being said, leads and architects that are truly still hands-on have been getting hired for this lately. Many get screened out for not being hands-on enough or at all when they interview.

This job is about talent and not rate; quality is everything. I cannot repeat enough that this job is about the quality of the candidate. You must find high-quality candidates who have been working in the USA for years and years. I would urge you to look for 14 plus years of experience on this one.

Typically, on this particular job description, it does more harm than good but it has been changed and updated now so hopefully it will help you to fill. Previous Java experience in their career or as former Java developers is beneficial. They need to have been in Python, typically for 5 plus years; the more the better. Very senior-level developers have been getting hired lately, a lot over 15 plus years, but sometimes a 10-year developer can be hired. The experience should be in the USA for at least 10 years. Lambdas are extremely important to get this position. They must have worked with them. AWS cloud experience is important. The more recent, the better; Azure is not what they're doing. This is an AWS migration from on-prem to cloud AWS, new code in Python, old code is in Java.
