Work with us
CloudCore AI staffs each engagement with senior engineers matched to the work. If you build, secure, or operate cloud platforms at that level, we would like to know you before the next project starts.
How we work with engineers
We are a small firm and we do not keep a bench. When an engagement needs more people, we bring in senior engineers as independent contractors, or through their own companies, for the length of that engagement. We do not have salaried positions open at the moment.
You work in the client’s cloud accounts and repositories, alongside the client’s team and our founder, who leads every engagement. The work is hands-on: you build, secure, and hand over production systems.
Who we look for
Senior engineers who can work independently in a production environment and explain their decisions to the people who will own the system afterward.
Platform engineers
AWS and Amazon EKS in production, infrastructure as code with Terraform, GitOps delivery, and cluster networking.
Security and compliance engineers
Controls implemented in the platform, not in spreadsheets: policy as code, audit logging, identity, and evidence for NIST SP 800-53, SOC 2, or HIPAA.
DevSecOps engineers
Delivery pipelines with security gates, signed artifacts, software bills of materials, and secrets management.
Site reliability engineers
Service-level objectives, OpenTelemetry observability, incident response, and disaster recovery that has been tested.
AI engineers
Retrieval over private data, evaluation, guardrails, and audit trails for generative AI in regulated settings.
Public-sector experience
A plus in any of these roles: delivery for state or local government, familiarity with state security policy, and accessible interfaces.
What to expect
Introduce yourself
Send a résumé or LinkedIn profile, the kinds of work you do best, and when you are available.
A technical conversation
You talk with our founder about systems you have built and operated: the decisions, the trade-offs, and what you would do differently.
Matched to an engagement
When a project fits, we agree the scope, rate, and dates in a written agreement before any work starts.
Good to know
- Engagements are project-based. We contact you when a project fits your skills and availability, and we cannot promise a start date.
- Some public-sector engagements carry requirements set by the agency, such as a background check or working from within the United States. We tell you about them before you commit.
- We keep what you send so we can contact you about future engagements. Ask us to delete it at any time. See our privacy policy.
CloudCore AI selects engineers on skill and fit for the engagement, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
