  • First-hand experience architecting, setting up, configuring, maintaining and operating Kubernetes and/or OpenShift environments; container platform experience is required.
  • Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code and automation, particularly Terraform and Ansible; CloudFormation, Python, Bash, PowerShell, GitOps or similar tools are strong assets.

  • Relevant certifications are an advantage, including AWS, Kubernetes/CKA/CKAD, Red Hat OpenShift, Terraform Associate or comparable DevOps/cloud credentials.
  • Fluency in English is required; French is an asset for Montreal-based support. Occasional travel and after-hours release or incident support may be required.

  • Implement Infrastructure as Code and configuration automation using Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation, GitOps patterns, Python, Bash, PowerShell, YAML/JSON or equivalent tools to standardize environments and reduce configuration drift.
  • Design, maintain and improve CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI, Jenkins or similar tooling, including build/package validation, artifact promotion, quality gates, deployment approvals, security scans, rollback steps and release evidence.
  • Support AWS and hybrid-cloud operations where applicable, including EC2, VPC/subnets/security groups, IAM, load balancing, Route 53, S3, RDS/Aurora PostgreSQL, CloudWatch, Systems Manager, KMS, Secrets Manager, snapshots and EKS/ECS concepts.
  • Administer Ubuntu LTS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) infrastructure, including package management, systemd services, patching, hardening, certificates, storage/filesystems, networking, log review and secure configuration.
  • Drive observability using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, ELK/OpenSearch, Splunk and CloudWatch; maintain dashboards, alerts, runbooks and proactive monitoring practices to resolve issues before customer impact.
  • Ensure security and compliance across cloud and on-prem environments through least-privilege access, IAM/RBAC, TLS/encryption practices, secrets management, vulnerability remediation, image/container scanning and audit evidence.
  • Collaborate across Development, QA, Security, vendors and Operations to embed DevOps toolchains, improve deployment repeatability, support automated testing and mentor teams on platform practices.
  • Participate in incident, problem and change management, including release support, maintenance windows, DR exercises, root-cause analysis, corrective actions and operational knowledge documentation.

Desired Qualifications
