The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  CloudFirst Corp is hiring a Cloud Engineer in Aurora, CO.

• Role description

  We are looking for a senior Cloud Engineer who thrives on solving hard problems with Serverless and Innovation. Look past the title and you'll see $119,000 - $174,000, a CO base, and a senior role that asks you to lead, not just execute.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Ship Flexibility fixes to CloudFirst Corp customers in Aurora, CO the same day they report them
  • Build Innovation dashboards so CloudFirst Corp's technology team stops asking engineers for numbers
  • Question the innovative Grafana pattern everyone copied and propose something cleaner
  • Trace a technology number back through CKA Certification services until it finally adds up
  • Configure and manage infrastructure as code across staging and production
  • Develop and maintain RESTful APIs powering core CloudFirst Corp products

  What You'll Bring

  • Hands-on technology experience that holds up to follow-up questions
  • A steady hand when three priorities all claim to be number one
  • Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities under tight deadlines
  • Familiarity with the rhythms of a hands-dirty freelance team

  Quietly, from Aurora, CloudFirst Corp has become the community-minded technology partner that CO's most demanding teams refuse to replace. Decisions at CloudFirst Corp come with a name attached, because ownership without accountability is just noise.

  Count on $119,000 - $174,000, remote-first flexibility, parental leave, and a stipend for the tools and courses you need.

  We re-validated this opening today; CloudFirst Corp is still on the lookout.
