Senior AWS Cloud Engineer

Dundee | £60,000 | Permanent

Published: 25.04.24 Ref: BBBH45833_1714034509

AWS Cloud Engineer for a Cloud consultancy based in Aberdeen and Dundee.

They are well known for their expertise within AWS but are now also diversifying into the other areas within cloud. Along with this diversification, they are expanding their AWS offering with an exciting release planned within the next year which you'll play a major part in. The company work with a range of clients across different sectors and have had a lot of large scale projects kick off lately.

You will have a strong background in AWS with ideally some exposure and understanding with Azure. You will be working with customers taking end to end ownership and understanding their requirements, using your expertise to assist with the design of the project, testing, and delivering the migrations. To ensure these projects are carried out sufficiently, they are someone who has experience within a similar role, who has strong knowledge of programming languages such as Python, Bash or Perl, and continuous integration/delivery tools, such as Github.

They're a small team of AWS Engineers and in terms of team fit, they are ideally looking for someone that isn't afraid to be really hands-on but is also big on knowledge sharing. Up to this point, they feel like they've maybe lacked in sharing information across the business and really want to improve this going forward, so evidence of good documentation would again be a big plus.

The salary on offer is circa £60K with a hybrid work model (2 days a week on site at either of their Aberdeen or Dundee office), with a strong benefits package which includes 34 days holiday, Health Cash Plan, excellent Pension, and many more staff discounts and benefits.

If you're an experienced AWS Engineer who is passionate about cloud and wants to work with Scotland's most well-known cloud consultancy, please apply below or get in touch with Nicole at Cathcart Technology.

Tips

We can help you prepare interviews and offer some great tips to help candidates get the best possible start.

Process

Before we assess a candidate and put them forward, we’ll do a phone interview to get a better understanding of the type you’re looking for, your goals and plans.

Preparation

We know exacly what employers are looking, especially our clients, because they told us. We can help you prepare for the interview and shape up for meeting their team.

Branding

Personal branding is a term you may or may not be familiar with. In our connected world, it pays to be fully prepared for what happens when employees search your name.

Our clients

Candidates

She was friendly, communicative and informative, talked me through the process and gave me good advice at every stage.

Software Engineer – Manchester

Compared to other recruiters I have worked with she seemed genuinely interested in helping me with my job search rather than just fulfilling quotas.

Software Developer – Lincoln

Never have a I met a recruiter like him, who embeds himself in the community so thoroughly in a way that could only be genuine. From our conversations, he has shown an understanding of the industry I would expect from a local CTO.

MI Analyst – Bolton

I can say with total sincerity I’ve never dealt with a more professional, knowledgeable and personable recruitment firm in fifteen years of contracting. They helped my wife and I relocate to Edinburgh with our five month old son and it’s in no small part to their tips and recommendations that we’ve settled in so quickly.

Transformation Consultant – Leeds

I’ve never written a recommendation for a recruiter before, so it must show how impressed I am!

Software Developer – Northampton

Equal parts friendly and professional, never once coming across as simply going through the motions and made the whole thing as painless as possible for all parties

Software Developer – Glasgow

It was a breath of fresh air – She is professional and approachable and will be there to help you every step of the way. Other recruiters give you the hard sell and the ‘best friend routine’ to get you on board and then just leave you guessing, but not here… She’s the real deal

Solutions Architect – Glasgow

A friend looking after me, that’s how I felt. His friendly character made the whole process way easier and enjoyable, he also managed to get me one of the most interesting work opportunities. I’m really glad our paths have crossed.

Software Engineer - Edinburgh

He goes out of his way to ensure you are prepared for your interview and I particularly appreciated his professional no nonsense approach to working with me to find a new position.

Infrastructure Architect – Glasgow

He stood out in a world of poorly informed, unreliable and frankly annoying recruiters as a breath of fresh air.

Data Scientist – Manchester

I have had dealings with the majority of recruitment agencies in this country and beyond. He really stands out from the crowd and the IT industry would benefit from more people like him.

Software Developer – Glasgow

He is the most honest, thorough and experienced recruitment consultant I have ever dealt with. If he can’t help you, he’ll tell you rather than spinning a yarn and putting you forward for jobs that aren’t suitable.

Technical Author – Edinburgh

Absolutely fantastic throughout my interview process, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! First of all, he is an absolutely brilliant communicator and extremely reliable. On top of all of his brilliant recruitment skills, it was amazing to see how genuinely excited he was for me when I received my offer. This truly conveyed to me how much he cares about his clients.

Software Engineer – Edinburgh

THE BEST test recruiter I’ve had the pleasure of working with, from start to finish. She provided me with training resources and is an organiser and participant in testing events. She really has taken the time to fully understand the testing principles.

Test Analyst – Aberdeen

She even was able to help get a firmer offer as I was offered two roles on the same day. I felt she went over and above to get the best offer she could for me without selling myself short.

QA Engineer – Glasgow
