• Senior AWS Engineer

    Robert Half Technology (South San Francisco, CA)


    Description

    Overview:

    We’re looking for a highly adaptable AWS expert who thrives in dynamic environments and knows how to drive architecture, automation, and scalability from day one. Bonus points if you’re a fungible engineer who can code in both C++ and Java, has multi-cloud chops, and knows how to navigate data pipelines like a pro. Think AWS Fargate, Kafka, Robotics, and maybe even a little Ourtoss experience? If that’s you, we want to talk.

    Key Responsibilities:

    + Architect and deploy scalable AWS solutions with a focus on Fargate, ECS, Lambda, and containerized workflows

    + Design and support real-time data streaming systems (Kafka, Kinesis, or equivalent)

    + Build resilient microservices and APIs in Java, C++, or C# (yes, all three are great—show off your versatility)

    + Support multi-cloud projects across AWS, Azure, and GCP where needed

    + Collaborate with engineering, robotics, and DevOps teams to scale infrastructure

    + Write clean, testable code and automate wherever possible

    + Lead and influence process improvement, cloud strategy, and CI/CD best practices

    Requirements

    Ideal Profile:

    + 8+ years of software engineering experience, with strong hands-on AWS knowledge

    + Fluent in C++ and Java (bonus: C# experience)

    + Experience with Kafka, Fargate, container orchestration, and serverless compute

    + Background in robotics, IoT, or Ourtoss is a major plus

    + Strong knowledge of multi-cloud environments and working with large-scale data pipelines

    + You pick up new tools fast, ask the right questions, and know how to drive the process forward independently
