- Own end-to-end observability and operational excellence, including monitoring, logging, alerting, performance tuning, and automation of infrastructure workflows.
- Lead incident response for production issues, ensuring effective mitigation, communication, and long-term remediation of system failures.
- Develop and improve cloud infrastructure solutions using Infrastructure as Code, container orchestration, and automation frameworks to enhance system resilience.
- Drive technical initiatives across teams, collaborating with engineering and business stakeholders to deliver cross-functional infrastructure projects.
- Identify operational gaps and introduce innovative solutions that improve system efficiency, reliability, and business impact.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to establishing engineering best practices across DevOps and platform reliability domains.
Requirements:
- 8+ years of experience in DevOps, infrastructure engineering, or site reliability engineering, including significant hands-on cloud experience.
- Strong expertise in cloud platforms (especially AWS), including orchestration tools such as Kubernetes, ECS, or EKS.
- Deep understanding of distributed systems, networking, operating systems, and large-scale system architecture.
- Proven experience building and maintaining observability stacks using tools such as Datadog, New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana, or ELK.
- Strong scripting and automation skills using Python, Bash, or similar languages, with experience in production-grade tooling.
- Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or Packer, and containerization with Docker.
- Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills with the ability to resolve complex production issues under pressure.
- Excellent communication skills with experience working across global, cross-functional teams and stakeholder groups.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
