    Description


    Alphero is a digital agency working with businesses big and small across New Zealand, to build digital services that make a difference for all of Aotearoa.

    Areas of focus

    Ideally you have experience with cloud technology frameworks such as (or equivalent to) AWS Fargate or EC2, API Gateways, AWS VPCs and Networking, and possibly building Lambdas (using Typescript / NodeJS), AWS CDK, DynamoDB, AWS Aurora (PostgresSQL), Cloud-front and S3.

    To make us extra happy you may bring us experience with headless CMS implementations
