  • Develop and implement automation tools and scripts for deployment, monitoring, and maintenance tasks.
  • Proactively monitor system performance, identify bottlenecks, and recommend improvements to increase efficiency and resiliency.
  • Collaborate with software development teams to define service-level objectives (SLOs) and ensure service-level indicators (SLIs) meet operational goals.
  • Perform root cause analysis of production issues and drive permanent corrective actions.
  • Implement and manage DevOps pipelines for continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD).
  • Use monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Splunk, AppDynamics, New Relic) to maintain service health visibility.
  • Apply chaos engineering principles to test system resilience and recovery.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and incident response, ensuring quick restoration of service.

  • Experience with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar).
  • Familiarity with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Excellent troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong collaboration and communication abilities with cross-functional teams.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience implementing chaos engineering and resiliency testing frameworks.
  • Background in application performance monitoring (APM) and tuning.
  • Exposure to infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation).
  • Certification in AWS/Azure/GCP or related SRE/DevOps technologies.
