Who You Are
You are a seasoned Cloud Architect. You own the operational build-and-run, the Principal Architect owns technical architecture and design, and the Practice Manager owns strategy and go-to-market.
About The Role
The Senior AWS Managed Services Engineer builds out and operates Myriad360's AWS managed service offering in collaboration with the AWS Practice Manager, Principal Architect, and Managed Services team, owning the operational build-and-run of a service designed to grow and scale.
This role has a dual mandate. First, build and operate the managed service: the incident management, service desk, monitoring, automation, and reporting that make it run day to day. Second, own AWS MSP Program certification, including the self-assessment, evidence collection, and audit readiness required to achieve and maintain designation.
The role starts hands-on, building and operating the service. As the practice scales, there is a clear path to lead the managed services team you help create.
Must be based in the United States.
Other responsibilities include:
-
Stand up and run incident management: identification, logging, categorization, prioritization, investigation, playbooks, resolution, and closure.
-
Build and operate the service desk and support model, including AWS Support plan coverage for partner-owned and customer-owned accounts.
-
Define and manage SLAs and service-level management.
-
Implement event management, dynamic monitoring, observability, and predictive monitoring / AIOps.
-
Author operational runbooks and automation to run the service repeatably.
-
Establish service continuity, disaster recovery, and backup processes.
-
Build FinOps reporting and financial planning into the managed service.
-
Set up personnel onboarding and the operational process documentation required to run and audit the service.
-
Own AWS MSP Program certification: build the service to meet MSP Program requirements and own the self-assessment, evidence collection, and audit readiness.
-
Build the customer service-management machinery (reporting, service-review cadence, escalation paths) and run key service reviews.
-
Use AI and automation to operate and scale the service, leveraging AI/ML platforms to help resolve tickets, surface anomalies, and identify optimization opportunities.
