What you bring
We are seeking an executive-level Cloud Application Developer to join us on a full-time basis at our location in India. You will play a pivotal role in designing, building, and supporting applications that fully leverage the power of the AWS Cloud. Your work will be central to our mission, as you bridge the gap between infrastructure and application development to ensure our systems are cloud-optimized, elastic, and highly available. Your primary responsibilities will include:
- Architecting and developing scalable application solutions that utilize AWS services.
- Implementing robust DevOps practices, including infrastructure as code, continuous integration, and automated deployment.
- Providing deep technical expertise in cloud architecture, design patterns, and programming to support the entire software development lifecycle.
Requirements
To succeed in this role, you should possess at least eight years of hands-on experience in application programming or technical architecture. We require a strong background in Agile development and extensive experience designing and deploying large-scale infrastructures within the AWS environment, ideally within highly regulated industries. You must be proficient in Python and Java, with a solid understanding of web technologies, Git, and automated build pipelines. We value candidates who hold a technical degree in Computer Science or Engineering, though a Master’s degree is preferred. You should also be an excellent communicator who can collaborate effectively across various teams while maintaining a focus on building secure, reliable, and automated production environments.
What we offer
We provide a dynamic and intellectually stimulating environment where your technical contributions directly impact our ability to analyze and manage risk. While we do not have specific salary figures to share at this time, we are committed to fostering a culture of excellence where your professional growth is a priority. We offer the following:
- The opportunity to work on game-changing projects at the forefront of cloud technology.
- Exposure to a sophisticated, research-driven investment environment.
- Collaborative work with world-class software engineers on complex, large-scale systems.
