At Strategic Consulting Partners, the AWS Engineer owns the problem end to end, from the first Terraform prototype to the 3 a.m. pager that never rings. This is $83,000 - $125,000 for 4 years of Python, a temporary schedule, and a mid-level stake in where Strategic Consulting Partners heads next.

• Keep Strategic Consulting Partners's Coaching CI under ten minutes so Plano, TX engineers stay in flow
• Untangle the Incident Response dependency knots that have slowed Plano releases for months
• Turn Strategic Consulting Partners's Strategic Planning on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something

What You'll Bring

• Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
• The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
• The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
• Comfort presenting to a TX-wide audience without a script
• A track record of forever-learning delivery in a temporary structure
