Spectrum One is Hiring

The Opportunity

Spectrum One is a strategic engineering partner for high-growth startups and established corporations. Since 2015, we have helped our clients raise over $150M in funding. We are a profitable business with consistent double-digit year-over-year growth.

We are looking for an experienced Cloud Migration Engineer (Azure Developer) to lead a critical, one-time cloud infrastructure migration project. This is a high-impact, technical role where your work will directly shape our cloud infrastructure. You will be responsible for assessing the current AWS environment and successfully migrating services to Microsoft Azure while ensuring minimal downtime, cost efficiency, and performance optimization. We value the quality of your output and your hands-on execution above the length of your resume.

Who We Are Looking For

• Technical Expert: You bring proven, hands-on experience with both AWS and Azure platforms, specifically leading AWS to Azure migrations. You have deep knowledge of compute, storage, networking, database services, and CI/CD pipelines (CodePipeline, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions). You are highly proficient with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and IaC tools.

• Self-Directed Professional: You take ownership of your work and can scope, prioritize, and execute with minimal hand-holding.

• Comfortable with Ambiguity: You thrive in fast-moving, early-stage environments and excel at troubleshooting and performance optimization.

• Iterative & Detail-Oriented: You ship incrementally, learn fast, and improve continuously, while maintaining a high bar for output quality, consistency, and security.

• Strong Communicator: You are clear and concise across async and sync channels, and you work well collaboratively with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.

• Bonus Points: Azure or AWS certifications, experience with large-scale or enterprise migrations, Terraform experience, and a background in cost optimization and cloud governance.

Why Engineers Choose Us

• High-Trust Environment: We hire adults. We don't track keystrokes or enforce arbitrary hours. We care about the quality of your output.

• Deep Work: We minimize meetings to protect your focus time. We operate asynchronously by default.

• International Standards: You will work with top-tier international clients, building systems that scale and handle real-world traffic.

Why Join Spectrum One?

• Real Strategic Influence: We expect engineers to drive technical decisions. You will have a direct hand in shaping the architecture and project execution.

• Autonomy by Default: We reject the traditional agency model of "churn and burn." We provide the context and the goal, then we trust you to execute.

• A Culture of Excellence: You will be surrounded by high-performers who push you to be better. We believe in continuous evolution and provide the environment you need to do the best work of your career.

• Top-of-Market Compensation: High base salary benchmarked against industry standards, plus annual performance-based bonuses.

• Annual Team-Building: A fully-funded, company-wide team-building to celebrate our wins.
