+#### Custom build job for Auto DevOps
+
+To leverage [Auto DevOps](../../topics/autodevops/index.md) for your project when deploying to
+AWS EC2, you must specify a job for the `build` stage.
+
+To do so, you must reference the `Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml` template and include a job named
+`build_artifact` in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. For example:
+
+```yaml
+# .gitlab-ci.yml
+
+include:
+ - template: Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+variables:
+ - AUTO_DEVOPS_PLATFORM_TARGET: EC2
+
+build_artifact:
+ stage: build
+ script:
+ - <your build script goes here>
+ artifacts:
+ paths:
+ - <built artifact>
+```
