Level:

Employment Type:


Role Purpose

greater ownership of the internal engineering backlog


Key Outcomes

(What success looks like – first 12 months)

  1. Backlog Ownership:

    A transparent engineering backlog for shared platform work (multi-practice), with clear SLAs/SLOs and a steady burndown velocity.
  2. Production Reliability:

    Stable and secure operations of AI Chat Bot, Internal AI enhanced productivity and Ops experience platforms, and future AI services with robust runbooks, on call readiness, change discipline, and incident postmortems.
  3. Engineering Maturity:

    Measurable adoption of

    Terraform/Tofu, CloudFormation, Ansible

    ,

    Git based CI/CD

    , and

    observability

    across non-prod and prod environments. (Adoption = services onboarded + policy conformance.)
  4. Reusable Assets:

    A curated internal library of

    platform patterns, IaC modules, and CI/CD blueprints

    that reduce time-to-ready for new work by 30–50%.
  5. Talent Pipeline:

    Training graduates complete a three to six month rotation, during which their skills and client readiness are documented and approved, while Level 1 interviews are conducted regularly using clear rubrics.
  6. Stakeholder Confidence:

    Consistent partner feedback on clarity of roadmaps, documentation quality, and timely platform support.


What You’ll Do

Platform Operations & Support

  • Run day-to-day platform operations for

    AI Chat Bot, AI Enhanced Ops platforms, and future AI services

    (availability, performance, cost, security, change/incident, and DR drills).
  • Establish production grade monitoring, alerting, tracing, dashboards, SLOs, and error budgets, drive observability by default.
  • Maintain configuration, patching, upgrades, backup/restore, and environment hygiene across cloud and Kubernetes layers with strong documentation and runbooks.


Engineering Enablement (IaC, CI/CD, Kubernetes)

  • Lead the

    standardization and adoption

    of Infrastructure as Code (

    Terraform/Tofu, CloudFormation, Ansible

    ), Git workflows, and policy-as-code.
  • Build/maintain

    reusable Terraform modules

    and reference pipelines that are versioned, documented, and

    tested

    .
  • Design and evolve

    CI/CD

    for both

    platform

    and

    application

    teams (automated testing, security gates, and release orchestration).
  • Operate and optimize

    Kubernetes

    (cluster lifecycle, addons, namespaces, network/security policies, scaling, upgrades, multi env promotions), guide teams on container and Helm best practices.


Architecture & Landing Zones

  • Contribute to

    secure, compliant landing zones

    and environment blueprints for AWS (and Azure as secondary) with network, identity, secrets, and controls baked in.
  • Collaborate on

    scalable, secure AWS solution designs

    and performance/cost optimizations for platform services.


Reusable Patterns, Docs, and Thought Leadership

  • Author and maintain

    pattern catalogues, accelerators, runbooks, and best practices

    for platform engineering and developer enablement.
  • Build small

    libraries/utilities

    that solve recurring problems for Cloud Architects and application squads.


Talent & Community

  • Mentor “Training graduates”

    on rotation (3–6 months) via a structured and pre-defined learning plan (IaC, CI/CD, K8s ops, observability, SRE fundamentals).
  • Conduct L1 interviews

    , shortlist candidates, and provide structured feedback to hiring panels.


Must have

  • Cloud:

    Primary

    AWS

    , secondary

    Azure

    ; hands-on with core services (e.g., EC2/EKS/ECS/Lambda/S3/RDS), landing zones, and security controls.
  • Programming:

    Python

    (development, not just scripting);

    TypeScript

    to an average level for tooling and portals; familiarity with REST and CLI tooling.
  • IaC & Config Mgmt:

    Terraform

    ,

    OpenTofu

    ,

    CloudFormation

    ,

    Ansible

    ; authoring reusable modules with tests and documentation.
  • DevOps Tooling:

    Git

    ,

    CI/CD

    pipeline development (e.g., Jenkins/GitLab/CodeDeploy) and config/secrets management.
  • Kubernetes:

    Cluster operations and app lifecycle management (Helm, ingress, service mesh desirable), with production incident handling.
  • Observability:

    Tracing, metrics, logs, dashboards, alerting, capacity/cost visibility, and SLO/SLI design.
  • Identity & Access:

    User management on cloud platforms,

    IAM/RBAC

    , access role management, directory integration, and governance guardrails.

Nice to Have

  • Experience building

    developer facing CI/CD blueprints

    and

    GitOps

    workflows.
  • Exposure to

    multi-cloud

    and

    migration of complex, multi-tier apps

    .
  • Certifications:

    AWS (SA Associate/Professional, DevOps, SysOps) and

    Kubernetes certification

    .


Professional Experience

  • 7–10 years

    total experience in cloud/platform engineering or DevOps for production workloads, including hands-on Kubernetes and IaC at scale.
  • Demonstrated ability to

    document architectures, runbooks

    , and

    present complex technical concepts

    to mixed audiences.
  • Strong collaboration with security, networking, and application teams; “automate everything” mindset.
