AWS Engineer

We're hiring an AWS Engineer for the unglamorous, essential work of making Attention Management fast enough that nobody notices it at all. This contract job at NexTech Systems delivers $55,000 - $80,000, hands-on ownership, and a clear ladder for technology professionals.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with QA to define test coverage and catch regressions early
• Collaborate with product and design teams to ship features end to end
• Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Redis and Kubernetes
• Pull Prometheus telemetry into dashboards NexTech Systems leaders actually open
• Lead the Kubernetes migration that finally retires NexTech Systems's fast-growing legacy stack
• Sketch the Interpersonal Skills architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
• Sit with technology users in Manhattan to learn what the Written Communication tool really needs
• Hand off Written Communication runbooks so the next on-call at NexTech Systems sleeps better

What You'll Bring

• Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics
• Working familiarity with contract schedules and team norms at NexTech Systems
• Eagerness to take ownership and run with new responsibilities
• Experience supporting cross-functional teams in a junior capacity
• A point of view, held loosely and defended well

For over 1 years, NexTech Systems has built ego-light solutions that help teams in Manhattan, KS get more done. Ownership runs deep here: you'll own outcomes, not just tasks, from your first week as an AWS Engineer.

At NexTech Systems, you'll find $55,000 - $80,000, a four-day flex week option, and ongoing coaching to deepen your Observability skills.

New applicants this week join a hiring cycle that is already in motion.
