  • Infrastructure cost reduction and waste elimination.
  • Standardized, scalable Kubernetes-based platform foundations.
  • Simplified and cost-aware observability strategy.
  • Automation-first operations for non-production controls.
  • Application modernization toward stateless, Linux-aligned deployment patterns.
Business Objectives This Role Owns
  • Drive cloud cost optimization initiatives from audit to remediation execution.
  • Lead platform direction for managed Kubernetes in a multi-cloud operating model.
  • Lead migration programs such as Kafka to Kafka-as-a-Service and ARM adoption.
  • Establish decision framework and rollout plan for Datadog alternatives.
  • Implementation of governance and automation for non-production shutdown schedules.
  • Partner with application teams to enable stateless architecture transitions.

Key Responsibilities
  • Work in Defining the cloud engineering operating model and role boundaries across DevOps, Cloud Ops, and R&D teams.
  • Build and mentor the initial cloud engineering team and hire pipeline.
  • Prioritize roadmap initiatives into quarterly execution plans with clear owners and milestones.
  • Establish platform and automation standards for infrastructure provisioning, CI/CD integration, security controls, and reliability.
  • Lead cross-functional programs that require coordinated cloud, platform, and application changes.
  • Ensure decisions are evidence-driven with transparent measurement and reporting.
Required Qualifications
  • 5+ years in cloud/platform engineering, SRE, or infrastructure leadership roles.
  • 3+ years leading cross-functional technical programs with direct business impact.
  • Strong hands-on depth in at least two of the following: Kubernetes platforms, cloud infrastructure automation, cost optimization, observability, CI/CD systems.
  • Experience across AWS and Azure in production environments.
  • Proven ability to translate business goals into technical roadmap execution.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Technical Skills
  • Managed Kubernetes platforms: EKS and/or AKS architecture and operations.
  • Infrastructure as Code: strong hands-on depth in Terraform or OpenTofu or Pulumi.
  • Cloud automation and scripting: Python and/or TypeScript for workflow and operations automation.
  • CI/CD implementation: Git-based pipelines, environment promotion, release controls, rollback patterns.
  • Cloud security foundations: IAM, secrets management, policy enforcement, and least-privilege design.
  • Cost optimization engineering: rightsizing, idle resource remediation, schedule automation, and governance controls.
  • Observability foundations: metrics, logs, traces, alert design, and SLO-oriented operating practices.

Preferred Technical Skills
  • Configuration management and systems automation (Ansible or equivalent).
  • Experience evaluating or migrating monitoring stacks (for example, Datadog alternatives).
  • Experience with Kafka platform migrations, including Kafka-as-a-Service adoption.
  • Experience enabling ARM64 migration and multi-arch build/deployment practices.
  • Experience driving stateless architecture transitions and config externalization patterns.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience leading cloud transformation in multi-tenant or regulated environments.
  • Experience with FinOps practices and cost governance operating models.
  • Experience with platform migration programs (for example, KaaS, ARM, stateless modernization).
  • Experience hiring and developing high-performing platform teams.
Leadership Competencies
  • Systems thinking with bias for execution.
  • Strong ownership and accountability.
  • Pragmatic decision-making under delivery constraints.
