Asked By TechWanderer92 On

I've dabbled in various AWS services like EC2, CloudWatch, S3, and ElastiCache while working on projects. With this experience, can I claim I know AWS on my resume? Just to clarify, I'm not using the CLI or Terraform, so I'm wondering how that affects my qualifications.

You can absolutely add what you’ve worked with to your resume! However, if I were hiring for a cloud developer position, I'd want you to not only know the services you mentioned but also how they integrate. Are you familiar with tools for building infrastructure, like Terraform? Can you manage IAM permissions properly? Knowing how to access AWS services from your application would definitely strengthen your profile.

Just be cautious with how you present your experience. Mentioning AWS implies a certain level of expertise, potentially including certifications. Keep that in mind when articulating your skills!

Knowing your way around the AWS console definitely gives you a foundational understanding of how some services work together. Many people list services on their resumes after a quick glance. So yes, you can list it, but keep in mind that employers often look for familiarity with automation tools like Terraform or CloudFormation, along with the CLI.
