  • Troubleshoot deployment failures, broken pipelines, infrastructure issues, and application integration problems.
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation, runbooks, ADRs, architecture standards, and operational procedures.
  • Participate in Tier 2 on-call rotations and support platform incidents.
  • Collaborate with application and engineering teams to establish DevOps and platform best practices.
  • Mentor junior engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing.

Qualifications:
  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including deployment, management, and troubleshooting of clusters and workloads.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Pulumi, or similar.
  • Strong experience with CI/CD, preferably GitLab CI or equivalent platforms.
  • Strong knowledge of Linux/Unix administration and command-line tools.
