Hire cloud engineers in India — AWS, GCP, and Azure architects
200,000+ cloud-certified engineers in India. Pre-vetted on architecture depth, not just certification count.
India has one of the highest concentrations of cloud-certified engineers globally — over 200,000 AWS-certified professionals and tens of thousands with GCP and Azure credentials. Remvix goes beyond certifications to source cloud architects with genuine production experience: multi-account architectures, cost optimisation, security posture management, and cloud-native application design at scale.
Why companies hire dedicated Cloud Engineers.
Cloud architecture determines long-term scalability
Foundational cloud architecture decisions — account structure, networking design, IAM strategy — are expensive to change later. Dedicated cloud engineers make these decisions correctly the first time.
Cloud spend is a growing line item
For most SaaS companies, cloud infrastructure is the second or third largest cost after headcount. A dedicated cloud engineer who understands FinOps typically saves 25–40% of cloud spend.
Security posture is a board-level concern
Cloud security misconfigurations are the primary source of data breaches. Dedicated cloud security engineers who own the posture proactively are increasingly non-negotiable.
Why hire Cloud Engineers from India.
World's largest engineering talent pipeline
India produces 1.5M+ engineering graduates annually across IITs, NITs, IIITs, and hundreds of accredited colleges — the deepest single-country technical talent pool globally.
English as the professional language
English is the default language of India's technology sector — code, documentation, architecture discussions, and business communication are all conducted in professional English.
4–8 hours of live US time-zone overlap
IST (UTC+5:30) provides genuine synchronous collaboration windows for standups, code reviews, and design sessions with US and EU teams.
GCC and startup ecosystem training
India's 1,800+ Global Capability Centres and unicorn ecosystem (Razorpay, Meesho, CRED, Swiggy) have trained engineers in product-grade software development at global scale.
65–72% cost savings vs US market
Fully-loaded offshore cost through Remvix runs 28–35% of US-equivalent compensation — without sacrificing seniority or code quality.

What to know before you start.
Certification pass rates vs production architecture depth
AWS certification exams are passable with exam prep. Remvix's live cloud architecture exercises — multi-account design, VPC topology, security posture — separate genuine architects from certified generalists.
Multi-cloud vs single-cloud depth
Deep single-cloud (AWS) architects are more valuable than shallow multi-cloud generalists for most organisations. Remvix screens for the depth your environment requires.
FinOps maturity
Cloud cost optimisation is a specialist skill. Remvix screens for genuine FinOps experience — not just awareness of Reserved Instances, but actual cost reduction project outcomes.

Common questions.
Do cloud engineers know multi-account AWS architecture?+
Senior cloud engineers from India's cloud-native companies can design AWS Organizations structures, landing zones, VPC topology, and cross-account IAM. We screen with live architecture exercises.
Can they implement cloud security (IAM, SCPs, GuardDuty)?+
Yes — AWS Security Hub, GuardDuty, WAF, SCPs, and least-privilege IAM design are screened for cloud security roles.
Can they do cloud cost optimisation?+
Yes — Reserved Instance strategy, Savings Plans, Spot architectures, right-sizing analysis, and FinOps dashboard implementation are screened for FinOps-responsible roles.
Do they know Terraform?+
Yes — Terraform is the dominant IaC tool in India's cloud engineering community. AWS CDK, Pulumi, and CloudFormation are also available.
Can cloud engineers manage GCP as well as AWS?+
Yes — multi-cloud engineers with genuine GCP (Vertex AI, GKE, BigQuery) or Azure experience are available, though depth is greatest in AWS.
How much does a senior cloud engineer cost through Remvix?+
Approximately $65–82K all-in annually. US equivalent is $200–280K total compensation.
Can they design disaster recovery architectures?+
Yes — RPO/RTO design, multi-region failover, AWS Backup, and business continuity planning are in scope for senior cloud engineers.
Do cloud engineers know serverless (Lambda, Step Functions)?+
Yes — serverless architectures, Lambda optimisation, Step Functions workflows, and event-driven AWS design are available for engineers with serverless production experience.
Can they work with our existing cloud setup vs designing from scratch?+
Yes — most cloud engineers are equally skilled at inheriting and improving existing architectures as designing new ones.
