Hiring an AWS DevOps engineer is easy, but hiring the right developer with adequate AWS DevOps experience and knowledge is difficult. Companies that wish to deploy and maintain highly secure AWS cloud-based systems must hire the best AWS DevOps engineers. Several factors need to be considered while hiring highly experienced AWS DevOps engineers. This includes experience with the latest tools and technologies, various tools, frameworks, and methodologies, among others.

Hiring an experienced AWS DevOps engineer with all the required skills is challenging and time-consuming. To ease the effort, Turing offers the best remote AWS DevOps engineers deeply vetted to a high standard at half the price. Turing selects the best remote AWS DevOps engineers after testing their expertise in many areas like ECS, CI/CD, GCP, Data structures, and Azure, among others.

If you are a non-technical manager and interested in learning more about the hiring process for an AWS DevOps engineer, we've put up an excellent resource for you.

Skills to look for in an AWS DevOps engineer?

At a high level, AWS DevOps engineers should have the following skills in their arsenal:

1. Inventory and configuration management

Inventory and configuration management are some essential skills to look for when hiring an AWS DevOps developer. The engineer should know how to use a detailed inventory of the existing AWS resource configuration to understand how a resource was configured in the past. A thorough understanding of using predefined AWS-managed rules to facilitate a simplified assessment of AWS resources is highly desirable.

2. Containers

Many modern organizations are migrating from traditional delivery models of applications installed on virtual machines to a landscape of containerized systems. There is a whole new world of container-related tools that an engineer must be familiar with. These tools include Docker Engine, Docker Swarm, systems spawn, LXC, container registries, Kubernetes (which includes dozens of tools, applications, and services in its ecosystem), and many more.

3. Cloud

AWS DevOps engineers must be subject matter experts in AWS services, tools, and best practices. They work in sync with product development teams on various services and recommend which services to use and when. Therefore, you must hire an AWS DevOps engineer who possesses a thorough knowledge of the variety and breadth of AWS services, their limitations, and the workarounds (non-AWS) that may work best in specific situations.

4. Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD)

Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) helps eliminate manual tasks and avoid various coding errors. It allows a level of transparency in the software development process. To be a successful AWS DevOps engineer, one must have the knowledge and hands-on experience in Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) environments, among other key skills.

5. Familiarity with version control systems

Version control systems like Git, SVN, Mercurial, etc., assist developers in building and developing applications safely and efficiently. Popular version control tools like Git help AWS DevOps engineers control every step of the software development process. Engineers with sufficient knowledge of such platforms can work efficiently on any project.

6. High proficiency in Agile methodologies

Agile is a project management methodology used by developers to improve the quality of products through continuous feedback and updates. A skilled AWS DevOps engineer must have a strong understanding of how this methodology works and is implemented.

Create a hiring funnel

Creating a hiring funnel will provide you with numerous benefits, like assisting you in identifying the top skills and identifying an AWS DevOps engineer who will fit into your company's culture.

Top interview questions to hire AWS DevOps engineers.

Whether you're an IT recruiter or a project manager, you know that finding top developers is critical to the success of your project. Here are some sample interview questions to use when hiring an AWS DevOps engineer to work on your online applications.

AWS provides services to help you practice DevOps in your business that was first developed for use with AWS. These tools automate manual tasks, help teams manage complex environments at scale, and keep engineers in control of the high speeds that DevOps enables.

These tools help automate manual tasks, manage complex environments at scale, and keep engineers in control of the high speeds enabled by DevOps. Answering this question demonstrates that the developer is familiar with tools and can use them efficiently.

AWS offers CodeBuild, a fully managed internal build service that helps compile source code, test, and produce packages for deployment. No administration, allocation, or deployment is required to scale servers as they scale automatically. Builds run concurrently on servers, which has the most significant advantage of eliminating the need for queued builds.

An ideal answer to this question should be like: developers use AWS tools to begin storing and versioning an application's source code. The services are then used to automatically build, test, and deploy the application locally or on AWS instances. It is beneficial to start with CodePipeline to build the CI/CD services and then use CodeBuild and CodeDeploy as needed.

AWS Code Deploy automates code deployments for any instance, including Amazon EC2 instances and on-premises servers. AWS Code Deploy makes it easy for you to publish new features quickly, helps you avoid downtime during application deployment, and handles the complexities of updating your applications.

Amazon ECS is a powerful container management service that is highly scalable and easy to use. It provides easy integration with Docker containers to quickly run applications on EC2 instances using a managed cluster. The answer to this question reflects the level of expertise the AWS DevOps engineer has.

The approval process can be easily configured by first configuring CodeBuild and integrating it directly into AWS CodePipeline. This ensures that build actions can be continually added, and therefore AWS takes care of continuous integration and deployment processes.
