• Deploy and maintain containerised workloads using Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm.
• Manage cloud infrastructure across AWS and IBM Cloud, including hybrid-cloud environments.
• Design and maintain reliable cloud connectivity, networking, disaster-recovery, and failover solutions.
• Develop and maintain infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices.
• Automate operational processes, infrastructure tasks, and troubleshooting workflows using Python and Bash.
• Build and enhance observability solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Thanos, and logging platforms.
• Monitor system health, identify performance bottlenecks, and proactively address reliability risks.
• Participate in and lead high-severity incident response and production troubleshooting.
• Conduct root-cause analysis and lead post-incident reviews and corrective actions.
• Develop and maintain capacity-planning and reliability-improvement strategies.
• Implement secure, resilient, and compliant infrastructure practices across cloud environments.
• Support disaster-recovery planning, testing, and continuous improvement.
• Collaborate with software engineering, platform, security, and architecture teams to improve production reliability.
• Contribute to architecture reviews, engineering standards, operational best practices, and automation initiatives.
