Implement and manage observability stack: Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Datadog for metrics, logs, and tracing
Own cloud cost governance tooling: tagging policies, FinOps dashboards, and automated resource right-sizing workflows
Implement security best practices: secrets management (Vault/AWS Secrets Manager), network policies, RBAC, and vulnerability scanning
Write runbooks, incident response playbooks, and contribute to SRE practices including blameless post-mortems

What We Are Looking For

3–8 years of DevOps, platform engineering, or SRE experience in a cloud-native environment
Deep Kubernetes expertise: cluster operations, workload management, networking (CNI, ingress), and storage
Terraform or Pulumi experience for IaC at scale; familiarity with Helm chart authoring
CI/CD pipeline experience: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD, or equivalent
At least two of three major clouds: AWS, GCP, Azure - with real production infrastructure experience on each
