• Proven experience managing distributed microservices, service meshes, API gateways, and inter-service communication.
• Strong knowledge of AWS security services, including IAM, Service Control Policies (SCPs), WAF, KMS, Secrets Manager, AWS Config, and CloudTrail.
• Experience implementing least-privilege access, zero-trust principles, and cloud security compliance controls.
• Hands-on experience integrating DevSecOps tools such as Snyk, Trivy, Checkov, and SonarQube into CI/CD pipelines.
• Understanding of OWASP security principles, CIS benchmarks, vulnerability management, and container security.
• Proficiency in Bitbucket repository administration, branch permissions, and YAML-based Bitbucket Pipelines.
• Strong experience developing and maintaining Jenkins CI/CD pipelines, shared libraries, plugins, and build agents.
• Experience administering AWS RDS databases, particularly PostgreSQL and Oracle SQL, including backup, replication, performance tuning, and migration activities.
• Experience administering Jira and Confluence, including workflows, permissions, automation, and plugin management.
• Working knowledge of Azure services, particularly Web Apps and Logic Apps/Workflows.
• Practical experience with Amazon Bedrock, including model invocation, guardrails, and AI agent development and deployment using Bedrock AgentCore.
• Understanding of third-party API integration, authentication mechanisms, rate limiting, error handling, and webhook management.
• Familiarity with FinOps practices and cloud cost optimization.
