AWS Platform Engineer (Contract) at Method-Resourcing, City of London, £Contract Rate

AWS Platform Engineer (Contract) AWS Node.js Python Terraform SNS / SQS Event-Driven Architecture 1 Day Per Week Hybrid into Central London £550 Per Day Outside IR35

Method Resourcing has partnered with a well-known technology organisation embarking on a major cloud modernisation programme. They are looking to bring in an AWS Platform Engineer to support the transformation of a large application estate while improving resilience, scalability, and recovery capabilities across the business.

This is not a traditional DevOps role. They are specifically looking for a software engineer with strong cloud platform experience who can design and build modern, cloud-native solutions.

The role: You will be joining a large transformation programme focused on modernising legacy applications and migrating them towards a cloud-native AWS environment. The programme is centred around improving resilience, recovery capabilities, and long-term platform sustainability.

You'll work closely with a team of AWS specialists, helping to design and develop scalable platform services while supporting the migration of a significant application estate away from legacy technologies.

This is a hands-on engineering role where software development capability is just as important as cloud platform knowledge.

What my client is looking for:

• Strong AWS Platform Engineering experience
• Excellent Node.js development skills
• Python development experience
• Terraform / Infrastructure as Code
• Event-driven architecture experience
• SNS / SQS experience
• Strong software engineering background
• Experience building and deploying cloud-native solutions at scale
• Experience working within complex transformation programmes

Contract:

• Day rate: £550 per day Outside IR35
• Contract: 6 months initially
• Working pattern: 1 day per week in Central London

Please apply, or send me your CV if you are interested to as I expect a high volume of applications.
