Job description

This is a mid-level AWS Engineer position for the person who automated their own job once and immediately wanted to do it again. The mid-level role rewards what you've built — 3 years of Problem Solving — with $80,000 - $106,000 and a voice in Citadel strategy.

Key Responsibilities

• Read the Team Leadership stack traces others skim past, and trace bugs to their root
• Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
• Land Load Balancing performance wins Citadel can measure in AZ retention numbers
• Investigate, diagnose, and fix bugs reported by users and monitoring tools
• Scale Citadel's Google Cloud Platform services from Glendale pilot to AZ-wide rollout

What You'll Bring

• 4 or more years steering technology projects end to end
• The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own
• Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment
• Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your technology craft

Quietly, from Glendale, Citadel has become the unhurried technology partner that AZ's most demanding teams refuse to replace. Mentorship goes both ways at Citadel, and seniority never means having all the answers.

For your 4 of Disaster Recovery, expect $80,000 - $106,000, a mentor, a benefits package, and the room to grow on a flexible schedule.
