- Monitor and optimize performance, cost, and security of AWS resources, ensuring high availability and resilience.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC):
- Develop and maintain IaC scripts for deploying and managing cloud infrastructure using Terraform
- Working with SRE team to help implement automated CI/CD pipelines to streamline the deployment of infrastructure and application updates.
- Security and Compliance:
- Implement AWS security best practices, including encryption, network security, and logging.
- Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments and collaborate with the ITSec team to remediate any findings.
- Ensure compliance with industry regulations and internal security policies.
- Monitoring and Incident Response:
- Set up monitoring and alerting for AWS resources using CloudWatch, AWS Config, and other monitoring tools.
- Respond to incidents, troubleshoot issues, and ensure timely resolution to minimize downtime.
- Collaboration and Documentation:
- Knowledge share and engage with existing ITOps engineers to improve skills across the team.
- Work closely with development teams, SRE engineers, and other stakeholders to design and implement solutions that meet business needs.
- Document processes, and procedures, and ensure full change control is carried out.
What you will bring:
- Technical Expertise:
- Extensive experience with AWS services including but not limited to EC2, RDS, EKS, OpenSearch, S3, Lambda, and VPC creation.
- Strong knowledge of multi-account management, AWS Organizations, and Control Tower.
- Proficiency in identity management using IAM, AWS SSO, and integration with EntraID.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code:
- Hands-on experience with Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or CDK.
- Knowledge of CI/CD tools and practices for automating infrastructure deployment.
- Soft Skills:
- Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to troubleshoot complex cloud environments.
