NerdRabbit is a cloud talent marketplace that connects businesses with top cloud professionals, including freelancers, contractors, and full-time candidates. It offers a range of services designed to help companies find the right talent for their cloud projects and job seekers find work opportunities in the cloud industry.

At NerdRabbit, we do not have standard job postings—we have (h)opportunities. These are opportunities created by employers looking to fill one or many positions within their company. Once created, they will show up on the (h)opportunity board and can be applied to by any Nerd on our platform. They can be offered on an hourly basis.

A NerdHerder is a representative from a company or an individual in need of an AWS expert to hop on a project, become a contractor, or join their team for a full-time role.

A Nerd is a prospective cloud professional with a screened AWS skill set that an employer would like to hire for their expertise to fill any hourly, part-time, or full-time positions.

A Nerd is an expert in their industry who excels or who aspires to excel in the IT cloud space. This "Nerd" wants to capitalize on their talents while being a revolutionist in the cloud 1st world and is looking for an opportunity to make an impact working with NerdHerders and being a problem solver.

If you are a cloud professional looking to apply for hourly, part-time, or full-time work you will want to sign up as a Nerd. After signing up, you will be contacted by a Cloud Recruitment consultant to screen your AWS expertise.

The first step in getting started with NerdRabbit is to register for our platform.

Nothing – this cost-free service is meant to promote the creation of relationships between Nerds and NerdHerders.

Our team of recruiters work hard to reach every new user as quickly as possible, but it still takes time to support our growing community. It may take 24-48 hours for you to receive your screening call!

All you need is a device with internet access and an email address or social media account (LinkedIn, Google) to sign up!

The Profile Wizard is the very first step once you log into your account after being activated. It is a 3-step process for you to build your profile before you start searching for jobs.

Some Nerds have opted into our verification process which requires one reference to confirm the professional AWS background of this Nerd. Nerds that complete this process will get a blue checkmark on their profile.

Click “Apply” and enter your desired rate, hours, and any comments you want to include. When you’re done, click “Apply” again to submit your application.

Nerds are able to filter by Rate, Skill, Company size and location to find our best openings.

Nerds can search for (h)opportunities by clicking “(h)opportunities” and selecting “find your (h)opportunity.”

All active profiles on our site require professional AWS experience. Our screening call is to ensure that new Nerds have actual AWS product experience before allowing them to sell their services on our platform.

No sweat! Even if you don’t have the AWS experience required, we have a long background of placing all types of IT professionals and would be happy to support your job search outside of our software.

All Nerds are required to have professional AWS experience. Our screening call will probe the types of projects you have worked on, the technology used, and problems you have solved to make sure that your experience checks out.
