Job description

Entry Level Software Engineer/DevOps (Relocation Required)

Job Title: Associate AI & DevOps Engineer (Internal Accelerated Track)

Rate: $35/hr (W2)

About BlackSpade: At BlackSpade, we value engineering capability and low‑level logic over a legacy corporate resume. Traditional software roles are evolving rapidly, and our firm is scaling to meet the enterprise demand for Cloud Infrastructure and Agentic AI Orchestration. If you are a high‑aptitude engineer who understands systems architecture but lacks a long formal corporate history, we want to talk to you.

The Role & Career Path: You will join BlackSpade as an Associate Engineer. To ensure alignment with our high‑stakes enterprise projects, your first 3 weeks will consist of an intensive, fully paid internal onboarding and technical immersion framework focused on Enterprise DevOps, Cloud Infrastructure, and Agentic AI workflows.

Following successful completion of our onboarding track, you will be deployed as a W2 consultant representing BlackSpade on‑site with our premium enterprise partners in Finance, Fintech, and Technology sectors across the United States.

The BlackSpade Engineering Guild: You will not be operating in a silo. As a BlackSpade engineer, you receive continuous, direct 1‑on‑1 technical and architectural guidance from our senior engineering staff embedded within top‑tier systems across the country. We provide the infrastructural support and continuous engineering education you need to excel in enterprise environments.

What We Offer:

• Full W2 Employment: Competitive hourly rate starting day one of onboarding.
• Mobility Support: Comprehensive relocation assistance for domestic client deployments.
• Modern Tech Stack: Immediate hands‑on work with Kubernetes, advanced AWS architecture, and production Agentic AI workflows.
• Enterprise Portfolio: Build an elite, enterprise‑grade engineering profile quickly.

The Requirements:

• Proven Technical Proficiency: Strong coding foundations in at least one major language (Python is our language of choice; if you have experience in a different object‑oriented language that is fine, but you will have to learn Python quickly) and a baseline understanding of how software interacts with networks and hardware.
• Relocation Flexibility: Absolute willingness to relocate domestically to support major enterprise client sites across the U.S.
• Evaluation Focused: Ability to pass a rigorous baseline technical assessment. This will test core competency in networking protocols, Linux, and programming fundamentals.
• Experience Level: 0–3 years. We value your logical capacity and building skills over years spent in a cubicle.
