Role Duties And Responsibilities
Deploy and operate containerized services using orchestration frameworks to ensure scalability and resilience. Automate infrastructure through Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to provide consistent and repeatable environments. Deploy and monitor workloads in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, VMware, OpenStack). Implement site reliability engineering (SRE) and observability practices to ensure resilience, monitoring, logging, metrics, and distributed tracing. Support high-throughput and service-oriented architectures, ensuring resilient and scalable deployments. Deliver incremental capabilities in Agile and DevSecOps environments following frameworks such as Scrum, SAFe, or Kanban. Design and manage secure networking and service meshes (TLS, Istio, Linkerd, API gateways) to ensure encrypted and reliable service-to-service communication. Apply zero-trust principles and compliance automation to enforce security policies and validate system compliance. Manage identity and access using secure methods for secrets, tokens, certificates, and least-privilege access control. Essential Skills And Experience
Minimum 4 years of experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift). Minimum 4 years of experience in designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with automated testing and security validation (Jenkins, GitLab, GitHub Actions, PyTest, Selenium, SAST/DAST). Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Helm, Pulumi). Experience deploying and securing workloads in hybrid/public cloud environments (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, VMware, OpenStack). Experience implementing site reliability engineering and observability practices (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Loki, OpenTelemetry). Experience implementing scalable, resilient, high-throughput systems and service-oriented architectures (SOA, distributed systems, performance tuning). Experience delivering capabilities in Agile/DevSecOps environments (Scrum, SAFe, Kanban). Experience designing and managing secure networking and service mesh (TLS, Istio, Linkerd, API gateways). Experience applying zero-trust principles and compliance automation (OPA, Kyverno, SBOM, CIS benchmarks). Experience managing secrets and access policies using modern IAM solutions (Vault, AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, RBAC/ABAC). Education And Requirements
