You are confident to take the lead as a technical problem solver and decision maker during critical incidents. As a cloud engineer, you excel at problem analysis, troubleshooting methodologies, and situation appraisal within the context of large-scale systems. While you needn’t be the subject matter expert on all services on the platform, your strong technical leadership will guide teams through critical issues and potentially stressful situations, enabling the team to execute a mitigation strategy to ensure swift service restoration.

• Experience with Nomad, Docker (or like orchestration), Consul, Terraform, Jenkins (or like deployment tools)
• Familiarity with supporting AWS services such as EC2, Serverless, APIGateway, DNS
• Familiarity with applications like NodeJs (express + D3 + psql), Python (Flask + MongoDB), Harness.
Preferred Skill Requirements Include:
• Experience supporting cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, GCP, etc
• At ease with at least one application or systems language
• Experience engineering for or providing platform support for cloud infrastructure and hybrid solutions
• Experience with modern toolsets such as Jira, PagerDuty, Kibana, Grafana, etc.
We Are Cisco
#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference. Here’s how we do it.
We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (30 years strong!) and only about hardware, but we’re also a software company. And a security company. A blockchain company. An AI/Machine Learning company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do – you can’t put us in a box!
But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it).
Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, we give our egos a break and we give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, we take bold steps, and we take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a commitment to equality for all, there is no moving forward.
So, you have colorful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool.
