We do this through infrastructure as code and configuration scripts that build fully operational commercial applications that can immediately be used in a production environment.

As a member of the Launch Wizard team, you will work with exciting technologies to automate provisioning solutions for a diverse set of enterprise customers at the scale of Amazon Web Services.
