**Position:** DevOps Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)

-   **Reports To:** DevOps Lead/Migrations Lead
-   **Location:** Remote
-   **Employment Type:** Contract

**Job Summary**

At RevStar, we are a dynamic team of engineers, UX designers, and product managers committed to putting business first in the pursuit of excellence. As an Advanced Technology Partner, we deliver cloud-native web and mobile applications, building modern data and AI solutions that drive tangible value. We foster a remote-first culture where teams freely innovate and grow together, building meaningful outcomes that matter.

**Our Core Values:**

-   **Self-Mastery:** We hold a high bar for how we think, communicate, and improve.
-   **Ownership:** We own outcomes, not just effort.
-   **Shared Destiny:** We rise or fall together.

We are looking for a strategic AI & Cloud DevOps Engineer who bridges technical execution with client-facing consulting. In this role, you will architect cloud-native infrastructure, automate enterprise deployments, and collaborate directly with client stakeholders to align cloud and AI strategies with business outcomes. You will thrive in a fast-paced environment where autonomy, technical depth, and clear communication drive everyday success.

### Key Pillars of Responsibility

-   Cloud & AI Architecture & Infrastructure: Architect, deploy, and manage scalable cloud and AI environments utilizing ECS, EKS, Lambda, S3, API Gateway, or AI platform services while ensuring security, reliability, and cost-efficiency.
-   Automation & CI/CD Pipelines: Build automated CI/CD pipelines and version-controlled Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, GitHub, Azure DevOps, and cloud/AI tooling for seamless releases.
-   Observability & Optimization: Implement proactive monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions across multi-cloud and AI infrastructure environments to optimize performance and prevent operational incidents.
-   Client Engagement & Delivery: Lead discovery workshops, demo solutions, gather technical requirements, and build immediate credibility with enterprise client stakeholders.

## Requirements

-   **7+ Years in Cloud & DevOps Engineering:** Extensive background designing, deploying, and maintaining enterprise cloud infrastructure.
-   **5+ Years of Cloud or AI Platform Mastery:** Deep hands-on experience across Anthropic, OpenAI, or AWS environments, serverless architectures, and containerized workloads.
-   **3+ Years in Consulting or Client-Facing Roles:** Proven track record operating as an independent actor—autonomously leading workload assessments, architecting cloud adoption roadmaps, and driving client engagements with minimal oversight.

### Technical Execution & Automation

-   **Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Containers:** Advanced expertise in Terraform, container orchestration (such as AWS ECS/EKS or equivalent cloud container services), and automated provisioning.
-   **CI/CD & DevSecOps:** Mastery in building secure, automated pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or cloud-native tooling) with integrated SAST/DAST, policy-as-code, and automated testing.
-   **Security & Financial Operations (FinOps):** Deep experience in cloud/AI security baselines (IAM least-privilege, guardrails, compliance automation) and cost-optimization frameworks.

### Certifications & Communication

-   **Active Certifications:** Professional-level Cloud, DevOps, or AI Certifications (e.g., AWS Certified DevOps Engineer – Professional, Solutions Architect – Professional, Specialty certs in Security / AI Practitioner, or equivalent Anthropic / OpenAI / Cloud platform credentials) strongly preferred.
-   **Consultative Communication:** Superior verbal, written, and presentation skills—confident in facilitating technical workshops, demoing complex architectures to stakeholders, and thriving in a 100% remote environment.

## Benefits

-   **Paid Time Off** – Take the time you need to recharge and stay productive.
-   **Collaborative, Innovative Culture** – Work alongside top talent in a fast-paced, supportive environment that values curiosity and initiative.
