Cloud-Native Infrastructure 
● Lead the design and improvement of AWS-native architectures that support secure, scalable, and resilient services. 
● Apply Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) to standardize and enforce consistent infrastructure patterns. 
● Manage Kubernetes cluster resource configurations, Helm charts, and Operator patterns to automate safe deployments. 

Developer Enablement & Tooling 
● Build internal tools and automation that reduce cognitive load for developers while enforcing security standards. 
● Partner with platform and developer productivity teams to streamline onboarding, deploy pipelines, and self-service capabilities.

● Strong understanding of Helm, including templating, dependency management, and release lifecycle practices. 
● Advanced troubleshooting skills for distributed systems using observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and tracing systems. 
● Proven ability to execute complex infrastructure migrations with minimal service disruption. 

Nice-to-Haves 
● Familiarity with CNCF ecosystem tooling and GitOps-based deployment models. 
● Prior experience designing and implementing secure infrastructure guardrails on Kubernetes (external-secrets-operator, cert-manager). 
● Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
