Job Details

RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a Senior Cloud Software Engineer. Preferred locations include Birmingham, Charlotte, Nashville, and Atlanta.

Project Overview:
This team is building a new small business digital account opening platform for the Company, covering both deposit and credit products (e.g., loans, credit cards, leases). The work is focused on modern software delivery practices-not legacy approaches. In this role, you will join a team that is scaling from 2 members to 7, helping design and implement modern, cloud-native solutions with a strong emphasis on automation, testing, observability, and orchestration over domain expertise.

Responsibilities:
* Senior Cloud Software Engineer will design, develop, and deploy software solutions for small business digital account fulfillment (deposit and credit)
* Build and enhance CI/CD pipelines, automating build, deployment, and artifact management processes
* Instrument code for observability, leveraging telemetry and monitoring platforms to track key system metrics
* Implement robust automated testing practices, embedding testing into the development lifecycle
* Collaborate with team members in an Agile/Scrum environment, contributing to architectural discussions and sprint deliverables
* As a Senior Cloud Software Engineer, you will leverage AWS services to deliver secure, scalable, and reliable solutions
* Work with both .NET and Node.js services, integrating with SQL and NoSQL databases

REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field
* 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
* Demonstrated AWS experience (certifications such as Solutions Architect or Developer preferred; hands-on portfolio or recent AWS Console/CLS usage required)
* Strong experience with CI/CD automation (build pipelines, deployments, artifacts)
* Hands-on experience with observability platforms, instrumentation, and telemetry analysis
* Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases
* Strong automated testing background; belief in test-driven development and quality-first mindset
* Proficiency in .NET and/or Node.js (preference for .NET, both is ideal)

Preferred Qualifications:
* AWS Certification (Solutions Architect or Developer)
* Experience in financial services or fintech environments
* Ability to balance technical orchestration and delivery excellence over domain specialization
* Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills

Candidate Traits:
* Cloud-first mindset - AWS is non-negotiable
* Test-infected - embarrassed when a tester finds a bug
* Automation-driven - passionate about building pipelines and processes
* Observability-focused - values visibility into system health
* Agile collaborator - thrives in a growing team environment
