AWS DevOps Contractor

AWS Contractor | 2 Months | Hybrid | Marlow, Buckinghamshire
I am currently recruiting for a global leader in designing and manufacturing of audio and content creation tools, from microphones to audio interfaces, using AI technologies to enhance the future of audio and video processing.

We are looking for a hands-on platform engineer with enough real-world scar tissue to know where production systems tend to snap. You’ll assist in taking a cloud-native, AI-enabled backend from “works” to production-grade. You’ll strengthen AWS foundations, improve deployment safety, harden security, upgrade observability, and ensure our inference and pipeline workloads can scale reliably and cost effectively.
Key Skills Needed:

Strong AWS delivery experience across: IAM, VPC/networking, compute (ECS/EKS/Lambda/EC2), load balancing, RDS/Aurora, DNS, logging/monitoring, security services.
Proven ability to take systems into production (not just “I can Terraform a VPC”).
Deep IaC experience (Terraform strongly preferred) with modular design and environments.
CI/CD implementation experience for applications and infrastructure.
Practical security engineering: least privilege, secrets management, encryption, auditability.This contract will be 2 months long initially (maybe room for extension) and is Outside IR35, offering a day rate between £500-£700pd (dependent on experience).
This is a hybrid role, and you would be expected in the Marlow office 3 days a week (2 WFH).

If you are good fit for this role and are immediately available or looking for a new role within the next month, then let me know when you are free for a quick call to discuss further: (url removed)
