Genesys CLOUD EXPERIENCE IS A MUST < ----
NO C2C or Any Agency will work here, Only W2
Title: Senior Genesys Cloud Engineers (Senior Engineer – CCaaS Operations)
Openings: Two Interviews: 2 rounds (all Virtual)
C2C: $/hr on w2 no benefits
Location: 100% Remote
6-12 months
General Challenges
We have been struggling with both roles due to:
- Candidates having primarily on‑prem Genesys Engage experience instead of Genesys Cloud.
- Limited candidates who meet the required years of hands‑on cloud experience.
- Clearance requirements narrowing the talent pool.
1. Senior Genesys Cloud Engineers (2 openings)
Key Requirements
- 5 years of Genesys Cloud experience preferred.
- 3 years is acceptable and considered strong given market limitations.
- Candidates must have hands-on engineering experience, not just support.
- Must be able to hit the ground running with minimal hand-holding.
- Strong communication skills—they will often be in meetings alone and must communicate effectively with various stakeholders.
- Experience leading or driving projects is preferred.
- Must have implemented at least 3 channels in Genesys Cloud:
- Email
- Voice
- Outbound
- (Inbound voice alone is not enough—too basic.)
- If they have strong communication skills and multi-channel experience on other platforms but only 1–2 years in Genesys Cloud, we will still consider them.
Common Issues Encountered
- Many resumes show 15–20 years of Genesys Engage (on‑prem) and very little cloud experience.
- Candidates lacking true hands-on experience or project ownership.
- We need engineers who can quickly learn Maximus standards and perform with minimal oversight.
Pipeline
- Currently one candidate who passed the first screening and may be a solid fit. No other viable resumes.
