RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a DevOps Engineer in Greenwood Village, CO.

Summary:
We are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to join a growing team focused on driving a large-scale migration from on-premise systems to AWS and eventually to a multi-cloud environment. This is a lead-level role requiring strong technical expertise, leadership ability, and a strategic mindset. You will play a key role in architecting solutions, mentoring junior team members, and contributing to the design and automation of scalable, secure cloud infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities:
* Lead the design and implementation of cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles (Terraform or CloudFormation)
* Develop and maintain Python scripts for automation, orchestration, and deployment
* Provide architectural guidance and technical leadership on DevOps best practices
* Mentor and train junior engineers, fostering skill development and team growth
* Support and evolve CI/CD pipelines and observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana)
* Architect and maintain multi-account and multi-tenant AWS environments, including complex networking models (hub-and-spoke, hive/swarm deployments)
* Ensure security and compliance across cloud infrastructure using IAM policies and best practices
* Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, security, and operations teams to support enterprise cloud adoption

REQUIREMENTS:
* 7+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps or cloud infrastructure roles
* Strong proficiency in Terraform (or CloudFormation) and Python scripting
* Deep experience with AWS, including multi-account setups and IAM configuration
* Working knowledge of Kubernetes, especially EKS
* Solid understanding of networking, security, and cloud provisioning
* Experience leading projects and mentoring junior engineers
* Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (Grafana, Datadog)

Nice-to-Have Skills:
* Experience with OpenSearch or Elasticsearch
* Exposure to Azure or Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform)
* Experience with centralized data lake accounts and cloud networking architectures
* Familiarity with hub-and-spoke, hive/swarm, or other multi-account deployment models

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off.
