• Build, maintain, and enhance CI/CD pipelines to enable automated build, test, and deployment workflows.
• Containerize applications using Docker and orchestrate them using Kubernetes (self-managed or managed services like EKS/AKS/GKE).
• Define, write, and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform (or equivalent) to provision and version cloud resources.
• Monitor system health, performance, and availability; implement alerting, logging, and observability (metrics, tracing, centralized logs).
• Collaborate with developers to enable efficient release processes, including blue/green or canary deployments, rollback mechanisms, and feature flag integration.
• Implement security best practices at infrastructure and deployment layers (IAM, secrets management, network segmentation, vulnerability scanning).
• Manage environment configurations and secrets securely (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault).
• Perform capacity planning, cost optimization, and disaster recovery planning.
• Troubleshoot production incidents, perform root cause analysis, and drive postmortems with actionable remediation.
• Automate routine operational tasks (backup, scaling, health checks, patching) and maintain runbooks.
• Assist in onboarding, mentoring junior engineers, and driving DevOps culture across the organization.

• Experience with database operations in cloud (managed PostgreSQL, Redis, etc.).
• Working knowledge of observability platforms (OpenTelemetry).
• Certification(s) such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, Azure DevOps Engineer Expert, or Google Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer.
