• Design, deploy, manage, and maintain secure, scalable, and highly available infrastructure within AWS environments.
• Manage and optimize Kubernetes clusters, ensuring system availability, reliability, performance, and security.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration, deployment, and operational processes using Python and DevOps tools.
• Optimize Kubernetes deployments and cloud resources to improve performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.
• Troubleshoot complex infrastructure, application deployment, and system performance issues.
• Collaborate with software engineering teams to support application integration, deployment, and ongoing operations.
• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, or similar automation platforms.
• Develop Python scripts and automation solutions to streamline system administration, deployment, monitoring, and operational workflows.
• Improve software delivery processes through automated builds, testing, integration, and deployment.
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual processes and improve infrastructure efficiency and reliability.
• Support containerized application deployments and lifecycle management within Kubernetes environments.
• Implement and maintain monitoring, logging, and observability solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, and the ELK Stack.
• Monitor system health, identify performance bottlenecks, and proactively resolve infrastructure and application issues.
• Implement security best practices across AWS infrastructure, Kubernetes environments, and application deployments.
• Support operations in high-security environments while adhering to established security protocols and compliance requirements.
• Develop and execute testing strategies to ensure system reliability, performance, and operational readiness.
• Participate in technical reviews, troubleshooting sessions, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers.
