Containerization & Serverless

• Manage and monitor container platforms: Docker, Kubernetes, ECS/Fargate.
• Build, deploy, and scale serverless microservices using Lambda and API Gateway integrations, ensuring robust integration with microservices-based systems.

Monitoring, Logging & Incident Response

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Interface with developers, QA, Security, and Product teams to provide infrastructure, automation, and operational support across the software lifecycle.
• Actively participate in sprint planning, release reviews, and post-incident retrospectives, bringing DevOps and security context to the table.
