Container Orchestration & Security
Build, containerize, and optimize applications utilizing Docker components (Engine, Compose).Deploy, load-balance, and manage production-ready Kubernetes clusters on AWS (EKS) and leverage Helm for managing Kubernetes charts.Enforce cloud security best practices (DevSecOps), including strict IAM policies, cross-account roles, STS credentialing, MFA, Security Groups, and NACLs.
Required Qualifications
Experience: 7+ years of IT experience, with 3+ years specifically in DevOps, SRE, or Cloud Engineering environments.Cloud Platform: Extensive hands-on experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS) core services (compute, network, storage, database).Infrastructure & Configuration: Mastery of Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, Chef, and Puppet.Containerization: Proven expertise running Docker and Kubernetes (or OpenShift/Mesos) in production at scale.CI/CDTooling: Deep knowledge of Jenkins, Git, Subversion, Maven, and JIRA.Observability: Strong experience setting up and configuring Splunk, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic, and Nagios.Scripting: Advanced proficiency in Bash/Shell, Python, Ruby, and YAML.OS/Systems Admin: Deep understanding of Linux/Unix administration (RHEL, CentOS, Ubuntu, Solaris) and networking protocols (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP, SSH).
