# AWS DevOps Engineer (Freelancer) at Mactores

- **Company:** Mactores
- **Location:** Mumbai, India
- **Employment:** freelance
- **Work type:** remote
- **Posted:** 2021-03-17
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-09-07

## Job description

Mactores is the agent-native AWS modernization firm. Most modernization work doesn't ship, it stalls in pilots, slips a year, or lands at three times the budget. We exist to ship it: production systems running, legacy retired, outcomes measured. Our delivery is built on Aedeon, the agent platform built by Mactores' founders' sister company, which absorbs the repetitive 60–70% of engagement work, discovery, dependency mapping, validation, test generation, that traditional consulting bills human hours against. Forward-deployed engineers own the rest: architecture, judgment, and cutover, on dates we commit to in the contract.

This freelance role sits in our infrastructure modernization work under the Application & Database Modernization pillar: moving legacy infrastructure and large enterprise workloads to AWS, and making the resulting platforms boring to operate. Customers come to us with hand-built environments, release cycles that depend on heroics, and big data workloads that outgrew their monitoring years ago. You'll work as a hands-on DevOps engineer on customer deployments, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, automated monitoring — for enterprise applications, customer applications, and big data workloads. Aedeon absorbs the discovery and validation grind; your billed hours go to the automation and reliability engineering that gets releases out and keeps them out. It's client-facing work: you set customer expectations and then meet them.

What you will do?

- Automate infrastructure creation using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation.
- Run application configuration management and enable Infrastructure as Code through deployment tools.
- Own and manage the build and release cycle for customer projects.
- Share responsibility for deploying releases and other operations and maintenance activities.
- Improve operations infrastructure: Jenkins clusters, Bitbucket, monitoring tools (Consul), and metrics tools like Graphite and Grafana.
- Provide operational support for the engineering team and help migrate legacy infrastructure to the cloud.
- Establish and enforce operational best practices, including monitoring for automated system health checks.
- Build scalable infrastructure for data platforms-Amazon EMR, Redshift, and SageMaker.
- Build our CI pipeline, and train and guide the team in DevOps practices.

What are we looking for?

- 4+ years of experience using Terraform for IaaC.
- 4+ years of configuration management and engineering for large-scale customers, ideally supporting an Agile development process.
- 4+ years of Linux or Windows administration experience.
- 4+ years with version control systems (git), including branching and merging strategies.
- 2+ years of experience working with AWS infrastructure and platform services.
- 2+ years of experience with cloud automation tools (Ansible, Chef).
- Exposure to container services on AWS: Kubernetes, ECS, and EKS.
- A proactive eye for what can be made more reliable — and the follow-through to make it so.

You will be preferred if

- Expertise across multiple cloud providers: Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform.
- AWS Solutions Architect Professional or Associate certification.
- AWS DevOps Professional certification.

How we work? We run a forward-deployed model: engineers embed with delivery teams, own their piece of the outcome, and ship against committed dates. This is a remote freelance engagement, so we'll be straight about the shape: you work project-by-project inside that model, with Aedeon absorbing the repetitive layer so your time goes to infrastructure judgment, not checklist work. You'll work independently, coordinate closely with the engagement team, and your automation will carry production traffic for named customers.

## About Mactores

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Mactores is an agent-native AWS modernization firm that delivers data platform, application, and AI agent projects for enterprise customers using a proprietary agent platform (Aedeon) and forward-deployed engineers.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Privately Held, no disclosed funding rounds)
- **Headquarters**: Bellevue, Washington, United States
- **Founded**: 2008
- **Founders**: Bal Heroor (CEO) and Nandan Umarji (COO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Cloud consulting & modernization / IT services (specializing in AWS, data platforms, and AI agents)
- **Target customers**: Fortune 500 companies, high-growth software teams (B2B enterprise)
- **Mission or purpose**: “Build the firm that builds the AI era.” Deliver modernizations that “compound for years, finished in weeks instead of quarters.”

## Products & Services
- **Aedeon Agent Platform**: Proprietary internal platform that absorbs 60–70% of engagement work (discovery, mapping, validation, cutover instrumentation), replacing the traditional consulting pyramid.
- **Data Platform Modernization**: Modernize data foundations to enable AI readiness, completed in weeks rather than quarters.
- **Application & Database Modernization**: Migrate and refactor legacy apps and databases to AWS-native architectures.
- **AI Agents for Apps**: Deploy production-grade AI agents for real operations (customer support, claims processing, real-time decision grids).

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metrics**:
  - Annual Revenue: $5M (per LinkedIn, though company website states “200+ AWS-certified engineers” suggesting a larger scale)
  - Headcount: Conflicting reports – LinkedIn lists 65 employees (with +5.4% YoY growth), while the company website claims “200+ AWS-certified engineers.” Actual headcount likely higher than 65.
  - 7 AWS Consulting Competencies, 17 AWS Service Validations, Agentic AI Specialization, AWS Premier Tier Services Partner.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: No external investors disclosed. Key partners include AWS (Premier Tier Partner) and customers such as Safaricom, Synaptics, Flipboard, Poshmark, Seagate, HP, Adani, DocuSign, KlearTrust, Tilia, Sterne Kessler, and Total Expert.
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount growth of +5.4% YoY (per LinkedIn), active job postings (+33.3% month-over-month), and expansion into AI agent delivery with Aedeon platform.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Agent-native delivery model**: Aedeon replaces the junior-heavy pyramid by automating 60–70% of engagement hours, allowing a lean team of senior forward-deployed engineers to own architecture and cutover directly.
- **Fixed-date, fixed-fee contracts**: Engagements close on customer-signed acceptance, not status reviews, reducing risk for clients.
- **Deep AWS credentials**: One of the first specialist AWS adoption practices, with Premier Tier Partner status, 7 competencies, and 200+ AWS-certified engineers – a credential set that procurement teams trust.

## Strategic Focus
- Scale the agent-native model across more enterprise engagements.
- Deepen specialization in Generative AI and Agentic AI on AWS.
- Continue to invest in Aedeon, the internal agent platform, to further reduce delivery hours and enable faster modernization cycles.
- Expand headcount with senior engineers who can operate as delivery owners.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Pragmatic, principle-driven environment (“Ten Core Leadership Principles”). Everyone is expected to get in the trenches; top-down teamwork and ownership are emphasized.
- **Work/Life Balance**: Scrum-based planning with day, week, sprint, and quarterly goals. Proactive communication prevents last-minute confusion. Time off is encouraged.
- **Learning & Development**: 20% of every Mactorian’s time is dedicated to learning new technologies. AWS certifications are fully funded and treated as staffing-quality investments.
- **Role Clarity**: Engineers are not placed on a pyramid under a thin senior layer. Every Mactores forward-deployed engineer is a senior delivery owner who personally signs off on production cutovers.
- **Remote/Hybrid**: Mixed – some roles are fully remote (e.g., Channel Partner Manager, Technical Content Writer), while others (e.g., Business Development Representative in Mumbai) are hybrid. Open roles listed on Lever.
- **Notable Perks**: Permanent learning time, career progression tied to principles and delivery outcomes.
