VMware estates are exactly where modernization programs go to stall - sprawling dependency graphs, undocumented workloads, and a hypervisor bill that grows while the migration deck gathers dust. Our customers need that estate moved, cut over, and retired, on a date in the contract.\nYou'll lead the design and implementation of the target infrastructure: Landing Zones built to AWS best practices, EKS-based container platforms, Infrastructure as Code across the stack with Terraform and CloudFormation, and HA, DR, security, and backup strategies that hold up in production. Aedeon absorbs the discovery, dependency-mapping, and validation grind that would otherwise consume the project's first two quarters. You own the judgment calls, architecture tradeoffs, cutover sequencing, risk decisions and you carry them through to production. You'll also mentor engineers and shape long-term infrastructure strategy with customer stakeholders. If you want your migration experience to end in retired VMware clusters rather than revised project plans, this is the role.\nWhat you will do?\nLead the design and implementation of infrastructure for a large-scale VMware-to-AWS migration - from discovery through production cutover.\nArchitect and build secure, scalable, and highly available AWS environments, including Landing Zones that follow AWS best practices.\nDesign and implement containerized application platforms on Amazon EKS; exposure to ECS is a plus.\nImplement Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation.\nDefine and enforce best practices across security, backups, high availability (HA), disaster recovery (DR), monitoring, and operations.\nEnable configuration management using tools such as Ansible, Chef, or similar.\nBuild CI/CD pipelines and manage the complete build and release lifecycle for customer applications.\nDrive automation across provisioning, deployment, and operational workflows.\nRetire legacy infrastructure and land cloud-native architectures in its place.\nImprove and maintain DevOps platforms: Jenkins, Git repositories, monitoring, and observability stacks.\nProvide L3-level support for complex infrastructure and platform issues.\nWork with stakeholders on technical strategy and long-term architecture.\nMentor engineers, contribute to talent evaluation, and support team development.\nWhat are we looking for?\n6+ years of hands-on DevOps experience, with strong expertise in designing and managing cloud infrastructure.\nStrong experience in VMware-to-AWS migration projects or large-scale infrastructure migrations.\n4+ years of Terraform and CloudFormation for Infrastructure as Code (IaC).\n4+ years in configuration management, systems engineering, and managing production-grade infrastructure.\nSolid Linux and/or Windows administration background.\nDeep understanding of AWS services, including VPC, EC2, IAM, EKS, ECS, RDS, S3, Backup, CloudWatch, etc.\nExperience with Kubernetes (EKS), ECS, and Docker in production environments.\nHands-on experience designing HA, DR, security, and backup strategies.\nExperience with Landing Zone setup, multi-account strategy, and AWS governance frameworks.\nProficiency in Git with a strong understanding of branching and merging strategies.\nExperience with CI/CD pipelines, automation, and operational tooling.\nA problem-solving mindset that's proactive and oriented toward reliability, performance, and scalability.\nYou will be preferred if\nExperience across multiple cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).\nAWS certifications such as Solutions Architect Associate/Professional or DevOps Engineer Professional.\nExposure to data platforms such as Amazon EMR, Redshift, Lake Formation, and SageMaker.\nExperience designing cloud architectures at an L3/Architect level.\nHow we work?\nWe run a forward-deployed model. Senior engineers embed with the customer's team, own outcomes from discovery through production, and carry the delivery commitment personally fixed dates, with Mactores absorbing overage cost for delays inside our control. Aedeon absorbs scale; you absorb judgment; the contract absorbs risk. On a migration this size, that division of labor is the difference between a cutover and a slide about a cutover. The culture is casual, moves fast, and measures itself by what ships.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4441,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cloud Consulting & Migration","Data Engineering & Migration Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2025-11-18T15:24:25Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.3,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":339,"expected_fill_days":87,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-24T06:02:35Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-24T13:36:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19524,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-25T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6938},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6938"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmactores-aws-devops-engineer-senior-migration-project-vmware-to-aws"}]}
