• Implement infrastructure automation and CI/CD practices aligned with DevOps and GitOps standards

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years’ experience delivering enterprise data integration and pipeline solutions in AWS environments
• Strong proficiency in Python and SQL with demonstrable hands-on cloud engineering experience
• Experience building scalable pipelines for AI data processing workflow
• Practical knowledge of Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Ansible), and CI/CD automation

• AI data processing patterns including embedding pipelines and vector storage
• DevOps/GitOps workflows, CI/CD, automation, and scripting
• Secure enterprise cloud environments with governance, compliance, and privacy controls

Important to know:

• Baseline clearance must already be held
• Experience supporting AI-driven data workloads is highly regarded
