Position Overview
You will lead automation, CI/CD, and cloud infrastructure initiatives, partnering with Development, QA, Security, and IT Operations. You’ll balance hands-on implementation with strategic architecture, mentoring, and on-call support. Your expertise with containers, CI tools, and version control will help ensure reliability, scalability, and continuous improvement.
✅ Key Responsibilities :
- Design, build & maintain CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins (or equivalent), seamlessly integrating with Git for code version control
- Containerization & orchestration: Create Docker images, manage container lifecycles; deploy and scale services in Kubernetes clusters (typically self‑managed or cloud‑managed)
- Cloud infrastructure provisioning & automation: Use IaC tools like Terraform or Ansible to provision compute, networking, and storage in AWS/Azure/GCP cloud environments
- Monitoring, logging & observability: Implement solutions like Prometheus, ELK, Grafana or equivalent to monitor performance, set alerts, and troubleshoot production issues
- System reliability & incident management: Participate in on‑call rotation, perform root‑cause analysis, and own post‑incident remediation
- Security & compliance: Embed DevSecOps practices—container image scanning, IAM policies, secrets management, and vulnerability remediation
- Mentorship & leadership: Guide junior team members, propose process improvements, and help transition manual workflows to automated pipelines
