STAFF AUGMENTATION
The AWS engineer you interview is the engineer who joins.
Ex-AWS engineers embedded in your team. No offshore handoffs, no juniors learning on your project.
WHY MOST STAFF AUG FAILS
You interview a senior. You get a junior.
Bait-and-switch is standard practice
Offshore staffing shops send their best engineer to the interview. Somebody else shows up on day one. By the time you notice, you've lost a sprint.
Juniors learning on your project
Cheap engineers cost more. They ask basic questions, miss AWS best practices, and generate cleanup work for your senior team.
Handoffs that lose context
Offshore models rotate engineers every quarter. Every rotation means re-onboarding, re-explaining, and re-learning your codebase.
AWS-certified engineers, hands-on, embedded in your team.
AWS DevOps and platform engineers
CI/CD, infrastructure as code, containers, and cloud automation. Deep AWS service knowledge and hands-on production experience.
AWS data engineers
Data pipelines, warehouses, and lakes on AWS. Amazon S3, Glue, Redshift, EMR, and Kinesis, with real production deployment history.
AWS AI and ML engineers
Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, and applied GenAI. Retrieval systems, evaluation pipelines, and production model deployment.
AWS security and compliance engineers
IAM, encryption, audit trails, and compliance-aware architecture. HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 environments handled from the first line of code.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
No handoffs. No juniors. No bait-and-switch.

70% of Cloudtech engineers are ex-AWS. AWS certification is required, not preferred. Deep service knowledge is the starting point, not the goal.

Cloudtech engineers embed in your team as one of your own. Standups, retros, code reviews, on-call. Not a vendor sitting on the sidelines.

AWS staff augmentation, answered.
What is AWS staff augmentation?
AWS staff augmentation is embedding an AWS-certified engineer directly in your team, on a day-rate or monthly retainer, to work alongside your existing developers. The engineer contributes to your codebase, your standups, and your on-call rotation as a real team member, not a vendor sitting on the sidelines.
How is Cloudtech different from an offshore staffing agency?
Cloudtech engineers are AWS-certified, hands-on, and in most cases ex-AWS. The engineer you interview is the engineer who joins your team, with no substitutions, no rotations, and no junior handoffs. Offshore agencies typically substitute engineers after the interview and rotate them quarterly.
What kind of AWS engineers can Cloudtech embed?
DevOps and platform engineers, data engineers, AI and ML engineers, and security and compliance engineers. All AWS-certified. Deep experience with production AWS workloads across compute, data, AI, and security services.
What does an embedded AWS engineer cost?
Cost depends on the seniority and specialty required, with pricing set at either a day rate or a monthly retainer. A free 30-minute consultation scopes the engineer profile and gives you a fixed quote within five days.
How quickly can an engineer start?
Typically within two weeks of the initial consultation. Cloudtech provides a shortlist within five days, and once selected, the engineer joins your team within the following week.
Can we hire the engineer full-time after the engagement?
Yes. Cloudtech engagements can convert to direct hire if the fit works for both sides. Terms are discussed during scoping.
