Description

Moving away from building infrastructure for the AWS brand My background is \~2 years of cloud engineering experience in consulting. I've mainly administered k8s clusters and built Terraform modules and designed Aws architectures. I now have an offer as an AWS Cloud Support Engineer for a newly launched region. Because the region is new, many issues are still internal. However I won't be actively building Infra myself. Instead I'll be debugging customer infrastructure issues and escalating internally. My motivation for the role is the AWS internals exposure, partly the brand on the CV for long term career leverage. I want to return to hands-on cloud engineering after this chapter. I would obviously continue with Open Source next to this job and build some demo setups with Terraform. However I am wondering whether trading 18 months of active building for AWS brand and internals knowledge a reasonable calculated bet? Or will it be tricky to move back into a hands on engineering role? [link] [handle]
