Code that ships to millions starts as a pull request on someone's screen, and at Honda we want that someone to be our next Cloud Engineer. This Cloud Engineer role hands mid-level talent $87,000 - $114,000, a temporary arrangement in TX, and the latitude to call the shots.
Key Responsibilities
- Replace the brittle AWS hack with a Cost Optimization solution that survives McKinney scale
- Keep the Amazon EKS build pipeline green so McKinney deploys never wait on a red light
- Translate a napkin idea from Honda founders into a RabbitMQ fast-growing prototype
- Trim Honda's cloud bill by right-sizing the GitHub Actions infrastructure in McKinney, TX
- Catch the RabbitMQ race conditions that only surface under McKinney peak traffic
- Turn Honda's PostgreSQL on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
- Read the PostgreSQL stack traces others skim past, and trace bugs to their root
- Monitor system health and set up alerting for purpose-led production environments
What You'll Bring
- The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later
- Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
- Proven PostgreSQL judgment when the textbook answer doesn't fit
- Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
- The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
- Hands-on familiarity with GitOps, sharpened by GitHub Actions side projects
- A service-minded attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
Honda is the candidly-kind McKinney company that turned a niche technology obsession into something the whole TX now uses. At Honda, asking for a day off doesn't require a doctor's note or a guilt trip.
Count on $87,000 - $114,000, remote-first flexibility, parental leave, and a stipend for the tools and courses you need.
