About Our Client:

Session AI is a cutting-edge technology company on a mission to transform digital customer engagement with real-time data intelligence. As they transition from legacy monolithic infrastructure to modern cloud-native architectures, they seek to build a robust, scalable foundation leveraging AWS and soon GCP. Their current engineering team is distributed globally, but they lack US time zone coverage—creating a critical need for an experienced, proactive Senior Cloud Engineer.

Role Overview:

As a Senior Cloud Engineer, you will drive the migration from legacy systems to modern, cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and GCP. You will design, implement, and maintain highly available, scalable, and secure cloud environments, ensuring best practices across deployments and infrastructure-as-code. You’ll provide strategic guidance on cloud architecture, lead adoption of modern DevOps principles, and enable the engineering team to succeed in a cloud-first approach.

Responsibilities:

Architect and implement scalable, secure cloud infrastructure on AWS (and future GCP environments).
Lead the transition from monolithic systems to modern cloud-native solutions, including containerization on EKS.
Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform.
Optimize CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows for cloud environments.
Guide engineering teams in adopting cloud best practices and automating infrastructure.
Support and troubleshoot cloud infrastructure issues aligned with US time zones.
Contribute to multi-cloud strategies and upcoming GCP expansion.
Document infrastructure design and processes to promote knowledge sharing and maintainability.

Requirements

5+ years of experience as a Cloud Engineer, DevOps Engineer, or similar, with leadership in cloud migrations.
Deep expertise in AWS, especially EKS (Kubernetes) and Athena.
Proficient in Terraform and infrastructure-as-code methodologies.
Hands-on experience designing and operating secure, scalable cloud environments.
Experience with CI/CD tools, container orchestration, and automation.
Exposure to GCP or ability to quickly ramp up on new cloud platforms.
Strong English communication skills.
Availability to work within US time zones.
Based in Latin America.

Bonus Points:

Proven success modernizing legacy systems to microservices or containerized architectures.
Certifications in AWS, Kubernetes, or GCP.
Familiarity with observability tools and cloud security best practices.
