JOB OVERVIEW

Overview

We’re hiring a hands-on senior engineer / architect to migrate a ---------- platform from AWS to a cloud-agnostic stack (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Cloudflare).

Lead infrastructure migration:

Migrate database safely
Deploy via Docker / Docker Compose
Execute zero-downtime cutover:

DNS switch via Cloudflare
Controlled AWS decommission
Ensure safe rollout + rollback at every stage

Requirements

Proven experience migrating live production systems
Solid understanding of:

Nice to Have
