AWS Engineer - Senior Consultant

Build it. Automate it. Make it better.

We're partnering with a leading global consulting organisation that's growing its AWS Engineering capability to deliver major cloud transformation projects for enterprise clients.

We're looking for hands-on AWS Engineers who enjoy building and automating cloud infrastructure, solving complex technical challenges and working with modern cloud-native technologies.

This isn't a role where you'll simply maintain someone else's infrastructure. You'll be involved in designing, building and improving AWS environments that support critical enterprise applications.

What you'll be doing

• Build and automate secure, scalable AWS infrastructure.

• Deliver Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, AWS CDK and/or CloudFormation.

• Work with AWS services including VPC, IAM, EKS/ECS, Lambda and API Gateway.

• Develop automation using Python and modern CI/CD tooling.

• Support cloud migrations, platform modernisation and application deployment.

• Collaborate with architects, engineers and client teams on technical solutions.

• Contribute to engineering standards, security and continuous improvement.

What we're looking for

• Approximately 3–6 years of relevant AWS/cloud engineering experience.

• Strong hands-on AWS engineering, ideally across production environments.

• Practical Terraform and/or AWS CDK experience.

• Python scripting or development skills.

• Exposure to Kubernetes, containers, serverless or cloud-native applications.

• Strong troubleshooting, problem-solving and communication skills.

• Ability to work collaboratively in a consulting/client-facing environment.

What's on offer?

• Work on significant enterprise AWS transformation programmes.

• Exposure to modern cloud-native and emerging AI technologies.

• Opportunities for technical development and career progression.

• A collaborative engineering environment with experienced architects and technical leaders.

• Permanent package of $103,000–$125,000 including 12% superannuation.

Location: Sydney CBD and client sites, with a minimum of three days onsite per week and potentially five depending on the engagement.

Eligibility: Australian citizens or permanent residents only. Exceptional communication and stakeholder engagement skills are essential.

If you're an AWS Engineer who enjoys building rather than just keeping the lights on, we'd love to hear from you.
