• Lead initiatives around Operations as Code, Monitoring as Code, Security as Code, and Self-Healing infrastructure.
• Champion the integration and scaling of AI agents and intelligent bots to support tasks like alert triage, defect remediation, ticket handling, and observability.
• Use Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, or Chef for environment automation and configuration consistency.
• Collaborate with Security to embed policy enforcement, conduct audits, and lead remediation across infrastructure layers.
• Define and implement monitoring/alerting systems using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, CloudWatch, and others.
• Drive cost efficiency, availability, and performance across infrastructure with automation-first thinking.
• Provide architectural guidance and mentorship to DevOps, CloudOps, and SRE teams.
• Actively contribute to innovation by exploring how LLMs, AI Ops, and AI-driven tooling can transform traditional infrastructure operations.

You've Got What It Takes If You Have:

• 10+ years in Cloud Architecture, Infrastructure Engineering, or related roles.
• Proven expertise in AWS (certified preferred), strong working knowledge of GCP and Azure.
• Demonstrated experience supporting applications in .NET/IIS, Java/RoR, and containerized environments on Kubernetes.
• Strong experience with RDBMS and NoSQL: MSSQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL.
• Scripting and automation with Python, Go, PowerShell, YAML.
• Familiarity with datacenter operations, CI/CD, and IaC (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Hands-on experience or experimentation with AI Agents, LLMs, or intelligent automation frameworks in an ops context.
• A strong bias toward automation, and passion for managing infrastructure through bots and intelligent systems.
• Experience integrating security tools like GuardDuty, SCC, AWS Config, etc., into infrastructure workflows.

Extra Dose of Awesome If You Have:

• AWS Solutions Architect – Professional or GCP Professional Cloud Architect certification.
