-Implement robust monitoring, alerting, and logging solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack, Splunk, or similar to ensure system observability and proactive issue detection.

-Enforce security best practices across infrastructure and pipelines, including secrets management (HashiCorp Vault, AWS KMS), network segmentation, identity and access management (IAM), and compliance adherence.

-Troubleshoot complex system issues across cloud infrastructure, networking, and application layers; perform root cause analysis and implement preventive measures.

-Collaborate cross-functionally with development, QA, security, and product teams to enable seamless integration and delivery workflows aligned with Agile and DevSecOps principles.

-Lead and mentor junior engineers, conducting code reviews, knowledge sharing sessions, and driving continuous improvement initiatives.

-Evaluate new technologies, tools, and frameworks and drive adoption to improve automation, scalability, and reliability.

-Implement disaster recovery, backup strategies, and capacity planning to safeguard business continuity

What We’re Looking For

-5+ years of professional experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or Cloud Engineering roles.

-Expertise in monitoring and logging stacks such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana), Splunk, or Datadog.

-Experience with security tooling and practices: secrets management, vulnerability scanning, compliance frameworks (SOC2, ISO27001), and IAM policies.

-Familiarity with database systems (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and caching mechanisms (Redis, Memcached) from an operational perspective.

-Strong knowledge of Agile, DevOps, and DevSecOps methodologies, with a track record of embedding these into engineering culture

Preferred Qualifications

-Certifications such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA), or Google Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer.

-Experience with serverless architectures and event-driven systems (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions) -Exposure to service mesh technologies and advanced Kubernetes networking/security patterns.
