Key Responsibilities & Deliverables
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Architect and operate secure, scalable AWS infrastructure supporting a high-availability data platform.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines enabling reliable, automated deployments.
- Implement Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar tools.
- Design and manage containerized environments (EKS, Kubernetes, Docker).
- Ensure platform uptime, reliability, and performance for real-time API and data services.
- Implement full observability stack (monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting).
- Enforce security, compliance, and operational best practices aligned with enterprise standards.
- Optimize cloud cost, scalability, and system performance.
- Partner with engineering, security, and product teams to enable platform growth.
We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
- 7 years of experience in a similar role, specifically in DevOps / Cloud Engineering.
- Deep expertise in AWS (VPC, IAM, EKS, ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, CloudFront, networking, security). This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
- Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred), building and scaling production cloud platforms, and CI/CD pipeline architecture and automation.
- Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team.
