• Lead infrastructure automation using Terraform and other IaC tools, ensuring reusable modules, secure state management, and standardized deployments.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines with automated testing, security scanning, release strategies (blue/green, canary, rolling), and artifact management.
• Manage Kubernetes platforms (EKS, AKS), including cluster lifecycle, scaling, security, Helm charts, and service mesh integration.
• Develop observability solutions using monitoring, logging, and tracing tools to ensure system health, performance, and proactive incident response.
• Implement cloud security controls including IAM, zero-trust principles, compliance frameworks, secrets management, and policy-as-code.
• Drive operational excellence through automation, reliability engineering, disaster recovery planning, and incident management practices.
