Ensure high availability, reliability, and performance of production environments; participate in incident response and root-cause analysis.

Implement security best practices: IAM least privilege, secrets management, encryption, logging, and compliance guardrails.

Maintain observability stack and operational monitoring (metrics, logs, alerts, dashboards) to support proactive support.

Optimize infrastructure costs and resource utilization (FinOps), including capacity planning and scaling strategies.

Collaborate with engineering teams to standardize deployment patterns and improve developer experience.

Qualifications Required

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, Information Technology, or equivalent practical experience.

8+ years of experience in DevOps / Cloud Engineering / SRE roles, with strong hands-on production experience.

Proven experience operating and supporting AWS-based environments (multi-account and multi-environment setups preferred).

Strong Infrastructure as Code skills using Terraform (Terragrunt is a plus), including module design, remote state management, and best practices.

Strong Kubernetes experience, including deployments, scaling, networking (Ingress), RBAC, and troubleshooting in production.

Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions preferred), including reusable workflows and secure pipelines.

Experience with Helm charts and GitOps tools such as FluxCD (ArgoCD is a plus).

Solid understanding of security best practices: IAM least privilege, secrets management, encryption, logging, and compliance controls.

Experience with observability tools and practices (monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards).

Strong scripting and automation skills (Bash, Python, or similar).

Excellent communication skills, ability to collaborate across teams, and mentor other engineers.
