Questions about hiring AWS engineers
How much does it cost to hire an AWS Engineer through NextPath?+
There is no upfront cost. As a performance-based staffing agency, you pay nothing until your AWS engineer starts. Final fees depend on the engagement type - contract, contract-to-hire or direct hire - and the seniority of the role.
How quickly can you deliver AWS Engineer candidates?+
For most AWS searches we deliver a qualified shortlist within 48 hours. Timelines vary with role complexity and interview availability, but our goal is always speed without sacrificing quality.
What skills do you screen AWS Engineers for?+
We vet for hands-on experience with core AWS services (EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS), networking (VPC), infrastructure as code (CloudFormation, Terraform), and cost and security best practices.
What kinds of projects can your AWS engineers support?+
From cloud migrations and serverless architecture to multi-account governance and cost optimization - on contract, contract-to-hire or direct-hire terms, on-site, hybrid or remote.
What's the difference between an AWS Engineer and a Cloud Engineer?+
An AWS Engineer specializes specifically in Amazon Web Services, while Cloud Engineer is a broader title that may span AWS, Azure and GCP. We help you define the exact scope and hire the right fit.
