Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement cloud infrastructure architectures with a strong focus on private networks, network segmentation, firewalls, VPN connectivity, and security best practices.
• Define and enforce cloud architecture standards ensuring high availability, fault tolerance, performance, and cost optimization.
• Design and manage VPC/VNet architectures, subnets, routing, NAT, gateways, security groups, and firewall rules.
• Implement and manage site-to-site and client VPNs, hybrid connectivity, and secure access models.
• Select, provision, and manage cloud services on AWS and Azure, including governance, access control, and cost management.
• Manage and maintain development, staging, and production environments to ensure stability, uptime, and security.
• Lead and oversee CI/CD pipeline design and implementation using Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes to enable reliable software delivery.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or ARM templates.
• Act as a technical bridge between development, operations, and security teams, ensuring smooth deployments and rapid issue resolution.
• Monitor infrastructure and network performance, investigate incidents, and drive root-cause analysis and preventive improvements.
• Identify and implement automation opportunities to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual effort.
• Create and maintain clear technical documentation covering infrastructure design, networking, security controls, and operational processes.
• Stay current with emerging DevOps, cloud, and security technologies to continuously improve platform reliability and performance.
