Hi Guys...
I am a long time active formite but I am posting these with an alt so others can also use the account if needed from our side and as recommended by the MyBB team.
We are expanding at a very exciting rate here in Capetown and are looking for Cloud Support Engineers to support our customers around the world. We also have positions for Software Development Engineers, I will add listings for these later but if you are interested send me a PM and I can get you started.
I will be posting separate listings for each position so you can get all the info for the area that interests you. I can unfortunately not post salaries as they will vary quite a bit, but let me assure you they are decent and there are many other benefits to working at Amazon.
If these positions interest you have a look at the web link or drop me PM. I will address common question with comments to these listing if needed.
Thanks!
