Overview
Robert Half is looking for a Senior DevOps / Cloud Engineer who can take ownership of a client's CI/CD pipelines and cloud environment. This person will be hands-on in AWS (with some Azure exposure) and help drive better DevOps practices across the team. There’s also a strong focus on mentoring—helping others level up in how they build, deploy, and operate in the cloud.
What you’ll be doing
Building and improving CI/CD pipelines to support faster, more reliable releases
Managing and scaling AWS environments (Azure experience is a plus)
Writing and maintaining infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
Automating wherever possible—deployments, monitoring, recovery, etc.
Working closely with dev, ops, and security teams to keep systems stable, secure, and performant
Helping teams adopt better DevOps practices and modern tooling
Troubleshooting issues in production and tightening up monitoring/alerting
Mentoring team members and sharing best practices across the organization
Requirements
What we’re looking for
U.S. Citizenship required
5+ years in a DevOps, Cloud, or similar engineering role
Strong AWS experience (this is the primary environment)
Some exposure to Azure is helpful but not required
Experience building CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure DevOps, etc.)
Background with infrastructure as code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
Experience with containers (Docker, Kubernetes, EKS/AKS)
Comfortable scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell, etc.)
Solid understanding of cloud architecture, networking, and security basics
Nice to have
Experience in a consulting or client-facing environment
Experience mentoring or leading DevOps initiatives
Multi-cloud experience (AWS + Azure)
Cloud certifications
Other details
Preference for candidates who are local or open to being onsite as needed
Must be able to pass enhanced background checks depending on the project
This role does involve working directly with client teams, so communication skills matter
