- Implement infrastructure-as-code (IaC) and CI/CD pipelines to automate build, test, and deployment workflows.
- Collaborate with other platform engineers, data engineers, and solution architects to ensure scalability, reliability, and maintainability of platform components.
- Champion DevOps practices including continuous integration, deployment automation, monitoring, and incident response.
- Design and implement secure, scalable, and cost-efficient application architectures leveraging cloud-native services (preferably AWS).
Requirements:
- Strong background in software engineering, with hands-on experience in cloud application development using modern frameworks (e.g., Python, Node.js, Go, or Java).
- Proven experience in DevOps engineering, including CI/CD, infrastructure automation, and application lifecycle environment management.
- Solid understanding of cloud platforms (preferably AWS), including services for compute, storage, networking, and security.
- Experience with containerisation and orchestration technologies (Preferably, Docker, ECS, etc.).
- Proficiency in designing and implementing RESTful APIs, microservices, and serverless architectures.
- Hands-on experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation.
