AI SummaryMactores is seeking an associate-level AWS DevOps Engineer to support application, database, and infrastructure migrations from on-premises environments to AWS. The role centers on infrastructure automation, CI/CD, observability, release operations, and production cutovers for client modernization engagements. Key technologies include Terraform, AWS services, CloudFormation, Jenkins, Bitbucket, Linux, Git, Ansible or Chef, and scripting with Bash, Python, or Groovy. The engineer will work directly with customers, support Java-based production applications, and help improve the reliability and repeatability of migration delivery. The position also requires comfort with late-evening patching and a proactive ownership mindset. ## Role DNA A quick view of the complexity, pace, ownership and collaboration implied by the job description. ### Job Complexity 4/5EasyHard ### Pace & Pressure 4/5RelaxedFast-paced ### Autonomy Level 4/5GuidedFull ownership ### Communication Load 4/5IndependentCollaborative AI insightThis role combines hands-on cloud migration delivery, production support, infrastructure automation, and customer-facing accountability.

I use pull-request reviews and terraform plan outputs before applies, manage sensitive values through a secrets solution, and validate changes in lower environments before production. Describe how you would approach migrating a Java application from on-premises infrastructure to AWS. I would first map dependencies, runtime requirements, network flows, data stores, and operational runbooks. I would then build the target AWS infrastructure as code, establish CI/CD and monitoring, test the application and rollback process in a non-production environment, and execute the cutover with clear ownership and validation criteria. What would you monitor for a production Java service running on AWS? I would monitor availability, latency, error rate, request volume, JVM memory and garbage collection, CPU, disk, network health, database connectivity, and queue or dependency failures. I would pair infrastructure metrics with structured application logs, actionable alerts, dashboards, and runbooks to reduce incident response time. How would you troubleshoot a failed Jenkins deployment pipeline? I would identify the first failing stage, inspect build logs and recent code or configuration changes, and determine whether the issue is in source checkout, dependency resolution, tests, artifact creation, credentials, infrastructure access, or deployment validation. I would communicate impact promptly, restore a known-good release if needed, and document the root cause and preventive fix. How do you handle customer-facing communication during a high-risk production cutover? I set expectations before the change by sharing the scope, timeline, risks, validation checks, rollback criteria, and communication channel. During the cutover, I provide concise status updates tied to milestones and immediately escalate blockers; afterward, I confirm success with evidence and capture lessons learned for the next migration. Mactores is the agent-native AWS modernization firm. Most modernization work doesn’t ship, it stalls in pilots, slips a year, or lands at three times the budget. We exist to ship it: production systems running, legacy retired, outcomes measured. Our delivery is built on Aedeon, the agent platform built by Mactores’ founders’ sister company, which absorbs the repetitive 60–70% of engagement work, discovery, dependency mapping, validation, test generation, that traditional consulting bills human hours against. Forward-deployed engineers own the rest: architecture, judgment, and cutover, on dates we commit to in the contract. This role sits in our Application & Database Modernization pillar: moving legacy applications, databases, and infrastructure from on-premises to cloud-native AWS on committed dates. Customers come to us with dedicated hardware that costs more every year, deployments that depend on one person’s memory, and enterprise workloads- Linux, Windows, big data that nobody wants to touch. You’ll join the DevOps team that lands these migrations. Aedeon handles the discovery and dependency-mapping grind; you build the automation, monitoring, and CI infrastructure that makes each cutover repeatable and safe. This is a client-facing engineering role: you’ll set customer expectations, meet them, and see your infrastructure work carry production traffic. ### What you will do? * Deliver application migration projects from on-premises to AWS. * Deliver database migration projects RDBMS, NoSQL, DW, Hadoop from on-premises to AWS. * Automate operational and server provisioning workflows using AWS CFT on AWS. * Share responsibility for deploying releases and running operations maintenance. * Improve operations infrastructure: Jenkins clusters, Bitbucket, monitoring tools (Consul), and metrics tools such as Graphite and Grafana. * Provide operational support for the rest of the engineering team. * Help migrate our remaining dedicated hardware infrastructure to the cloud retire the legacy, don’t babysit it. * Establish and maintain operational best practices, and implement monitoring for automated system health checks. * Build our CI pipeline, and train and guide the team in DevOps practices. ### What do you have? * 2+ years of experience using Terraform for IaaC. * 2+ years of configuration management and engineering for large-scale customers, ideally supporting an Agile development process. * 2+ years of Linux administration experience. * Deep understanding of version control systems (git), including branching and merging strategies. * Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/EC2/ECS/RDS/CloudFormation, CloudWatch, etc.) and cloud automation tools (Ansible, Chef). * Experience with software build tools (Maven, Gradle) and continuous integration tools (Jenkins). * Production support experience with Java-based applications — this one’s a must. * Experience with Linux environments and scripting languages: bash, Python, Groovy. * Experience supporting Node.js in production is a plus. * Knowledge of service discovery tools such as Consul is a plus. * Comfort working late evening hours, which is when most patching occurs. * A proactive eye for what can be made more reliable — and the follow-through to make it so. ### You will be preferred if * You are AWS DevOps Pro or AWS SA Pro Certified ### How we work? We run a forward-deployed model. Engineers embed with the customer’s team, own outcomes from discovery through production, and carry the delivery commitment personally. Aedeon absorbs scale; engineers absorb judgment; the contract absorbs risk. As an associate, that structure works in your favor: the repetitive discovery work is largely absorbed by agents, so your hours go to automation, infrastructure, and learning cutover discipline from senior engineers. The culture is casual and steers clear of rigid corporate habits. We care about what ships. ### Compensation ### Additional Information Life at Mactores We care about creating a culture that makes a real difference in the lives of every Mactorian.
