Job description

The AWS Engineer we're hiring will inherit a technology codebase with good bones and a few skeletons; Community Excellence Foundation is honest about both. What sets the offer apart is trust — $99,000 - $157,000 and full-time hours are nice, but the technology ownership is the headline.

Key Responsibilities

• Backfill OpenShift test coverage on the riskiest corners of Community Excellence Foundation's codebase
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Community Excellence Foundation stakeholders into shippable Written Communication services
• Replace the brittle Jenkins hack with an AWS Lambda solution that survives Edmond scale
• Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
• Refactor the technology module Community Excellence Foundation has been afraid to touch
• Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging Written Communication and Nginx
• Build Istio dashboards so Community Excellence Foundation's technology team stops asking engineers for numbers

What You'll Bring

• A safety-first bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• Senior-caliber judgment about when to elevate and when to absorb
• Comfort with full-time arrangements and the rhythms of an oddball-friendly workplace
• An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes
• Practical Jenkins skills sharpened in a full-time setting

Rooted in Edmond and restless by nature, Community Excellence Foundation keeps reinventing how Nginx and AWS Lambda fit together. We default to writing things down so the whole technology team stays in the loop without endless meetings.

The bottom line: $99,000 - $157,000, mentorship, benefits, and flexibility, wrapped into an AWS Engineer role that grows as fast as you do.

Re-confirmed open this morning, the senior seat at Community Excellence Foundation stays available.
