Senior AWS DevOps Engineer - Health Tech Revolution

Location: Reading/Berkshire (Hybrid - 1-2 days/week in office)

Salary: Competitive + Excellent Benefits

Industry: Health Tech / Digital Healthcare

Shape the Future of Digital Healthcare

We're looking for a Senior AWS DevOps Engineer who wants more than just another deployment role. This is your chance to architect, influence, and lead cloud solutions that genuinely improve patient outcomes and transform healthcare delivery.

Our client is a rapidly growing health tech company redefining medical software - and they need someone who can take ownership of their entire AWS ecosystem while helping shape the technical direction of innovative healthcare applications.

What Makes This Role Special

Full AWS Lifecycle Ownership - From initial architecture through deployment, monitoring, and optimization

Strategic Influence - Your voice matters in technical decisions and solution roadmaps

Healthcare Impact - Build systems that directly improve patient care and medical outcomes

True Autonomy - Freedom to innovate and implement best practices your way

Hybrid Flexibility - Minimal office requirements (1-2 days/month max)

Day-to-Day You'll Be:

Architecting & Building

  • Designing secure, scalable AWS infrastructure from the ground up
  • Leading infrastructure decisions and influencing strategic technical direction
  • Building robust CI/CD pipelines for mobile and cloud applications

Managing the Full AWS Lifecycle

  • Setting up and optimizing EC2 instances, Lambda functions, RDS databases
  • Implementing comprehensive cost management and optimization strategies
  • Managing VPCs, IAM policies, and security configurations across environments

Monitoring & Observability

  • Building sophisticated monitoring and alerting systems
  • Implementing observability solutions for proactive issue detection
  • Creating dashboards and metrics that drive operational excellence

Compliance & Security

  • Ensuring HIPAA, GDPR and healthcare regulatory compliance
  • Implementing security best practices across all AWS services
  • Managing access controls and audit trails for regulated environments

Collaboration & Innovation

  • Working closely with remote development teams on technical solutions
  • Driving automation and Infrastructure-as-Code initiatives
  • Contributing to technical strategy and innovation roadmap

What You'll Bring:

Essential Skills:

  • AWS Certified DevOps Engineer (or equivalent hands-on experience)
  • Deep experience across core AWS services: EC2, Lambda, RDS, VPC, IAM, CloudFormation, S3
  • Proven track record managing complete AWS lifecycle including provisioning, monitoring, cost optimization
  • Strong CI/CD pipeline expertise and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes)
  • Infrastructure-as-Code mastery (Terraform, CloudFormation)
  • Scripting expertise (Python, Bash, PowerShell)

Highly Valued:

  • Experience in regulated industries (healthcare, financial services, life sciences)
  • AWS cost management and FinOps experience
  • Monitoring tools expertise (CloudWatch, Datadog, New Relic, Prometheus)
  • Security and compliance framework knowledge
  • Experience with observability and APM solutions

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

Real Impact - Your work directly improves healthcare outcomes

Growth Trajectory - Join a scaling company where your contributions shape the future

Innovation Focus - Encouraged to bring new ideas and implement cutting-edge solutions

Work-Life Balance - Genuine hybrid flexibility with minimal travel requirements

Career Development - Opportunity to grow with the business and expand your influence

Competitive Package - Excellent salary plus comprehensive benefits
