  • Develop and maintain DevOps automation and deployment scripts using Bash, Python, and Groovy.
  • Support large-scale cloud-native data processing and ETL workloads using AWS and associated cloud technologies.
  • Support database architecture, implementation, administration, capacity planning, and operations for highly scalable enterprise data platforms, including multi-terabyte environments.
  • Develop and implement migration solutions that maintain data integrity, high availability, and minimal downtime during transitions from on-premises environments to AWS.
  • Collaborate with customers and engineering teams to gather requirements, understand application dependencies, identify technical risks, and develop tailored cloud migration and modernization solutions.
  • Provide technical guidance on cloud architecture, containerization, Kubernetes, DevOps automation, IaC, and AWS best practices.
  • Troubleshoot and optimize cloud infrastructure, containerized applications, CI/CD pipelines, and supporting platform services.
  • Review security scans, accessibility assessments, and performance testing results; develop mitigation and remediation plans and support implementation of corrective actions.
  • Stay current with emerging AWS, Kubernetes, DevOps, and cloud-native technologies and recommend improvements to existing solutions.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentoring to team members while ensuring adherence to established cloud and architectural standards.
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 7+ years of experience in cloud engineering, cloud architecture, DevOps, or a related field, with significant experience in AWS environments.

  • Experience designing and supporting automated CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across cloud infrastructure, containers, Kubernetes, and application deployment environments.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to engage directly with customers and cross-functional engineering teams.
