Description :

- Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of scalable, secure, and highly available AWS infrastructure leveraging services such as VPC, EC2, IAM, S3, SNS/SQS, EKS, KMS, and Secrets Manager.

- Develop and maintain reusable, modular IaC frameworks using Terraform and Terragrunt, and mentor team members on IaC best practices.

- Drive automation of infrastructure provisioning, deployment workflows, and routine operations through advanced Python scripting.

- Take ownership of cost optimization strategy by analyzing usage patterns, identifying savings opportunities, and implementing guardrails across multiple AWS environments.

- Define and enforce infrastructure governance, including secure access controls, encryption policies, and secret management mechanisms.

- Collaborate cross-functionally with development, QA, and operations teams to streamline and scale CI/CD pipelines for containerized microservices on Kubernetes (EKS).

- Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability practices to ensure platform health, resilience, and performance.

- Serve as a technical mentor and thought leader, guiding junior engineers and shaping cloud adoption and DevOps culture across the organization.

- Evaluate emerging technologies and tools, recommending improvements to enhance system performance, reliability, and developer productivity.

- Ensure infrastructure complies with security, regulatory, and operational standards, and drive initiatives around audit readiness and compliance.
