    Job Description

    About Aptum:


    Aptum is a hybrid multi-cloud consulting, managed services, and software company focused on open source, cloud native platforms, networking, DevOps and infrastructure services.

    Our purpose is to ensure our customers own their destiny in the cloud, meaning that we help our customers leverage the flexibility of the cloud or the stability of on-premises infrastructure while reserving the right to change technologies and components without vendor lock-in, enabling our customers to meet their changing business goals over time.


    What you can expect:
    At Aptum, we solve leading-edge technology challenges.

    We navigate the cloud ecosystem together with our customers - where the landscape, tools, and clouds will have you continuously growing and evolving your career.

    Although a strong infrastructure background will be crucial to success in this role, a focus on management, particularly people, process, and practice, will be what a successful candidate will need to own and drive.

    Aptum is a people-first organization, and we are passionate about understanding the needs of our customers regardless if they are internal or external.

    A successful candidate will be a steward for our customer's needs along their journey with Aptum and lead improvement projects to support our teams in supporting the customer journey.
