About the Job

Requirements

At least 3 years of hands-on experience designing, deploying, and supporting enterprise-grade systems on AWS, including VPC, IAM, EKS or ECS, RDS, S3, and EventBridge.
Operational experience with Terraform, including state management and module design, or AWS CDK.
Experience with Docker containerization and hands-on Kubernetes (EKS) or AWS ECS operations, including Helm templating.
Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, including automated testing, linting, security scanning, and artifact management with JFrog Artifactory, Sonatype Nexus, or GitHub Packages.
Proficiency in Python, including AWS SDK/boto3, or Go, alongside Linux shell scripting with Bash.
Experience implementing logging, metrics, and tracing platforms such as Datadog, OpenTelemetry, Splunk, or Prometheus/Grafana, and designing structured on-call incident responses.

Responsibilities

Architect, provision, and maintain modular AWS infrastructure using Terraform or AWS CDK, establish reusable modules, and enforce policy-as-code across multiple environments.
Design, build, and maintain automated delivery pipelines using GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, integrate them with GitOps engines such as Argo CD, and support zero-downtime progressive rollouts including Blue/Green and Canary.
Manage production-grade containerized workloads on Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) or Amazon ECS, optimize container image builds and build caching, and scale cluster resources using tools such as Karpenter or Cluster Autoscaler.
Instrument system-wide observability using OpenTelemetry, Datadog, Splunk, or AWS CloudWatch; define and track SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets; and establish actionable alerting pipelines that minimize alert fatigue.
Integrate automated vulnerability scanning for container images, dependencies, and infrastructure as code using tools such as Snyk or Trivy into CI/CD pipelines; manage centralized identity, role-based access controls, and secrets management using AWS Secrets Manager or HashiCorp Vault.
Develop custom automation scripts and micro-tools using Python (boto3) or Go to eliminate manual toil, support automated backups, and validate disaster recovery procedures.
Partner with engineering teams to monitor cloud consumption, optimize resource allocation, and implement automated scaling policies to maintain cost-efficient infrastructure.
Travel to client sites as required by the project or assignment, including sites outside the employee’s primary office location, state, or region.

Desired Qualifications

Experience implementing GitOps workflows with Argo CD or Flux.
Familiarity with Policy-as-Code frameworks such as Open Policy Agent/Gatekeeper, Kyverno, or Checkov.
Understanding of MLOps pipelines and supporting infrastructure for machine learning workloads, such as Kubeflow or AWS SageMaker.
Practical experience running OpenSearch/Elasticsearch clusters at scale.
AWS Certified Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer Professional, or other cloud certifications.
