DevOps & Platform Engineering

Design, build, and optimize scalable CI/CD pipelines and Kubernetes-native platform solutions.
Drive Infrastructure as Code (IaC), automation, and platform standardization initiatives.
Improve developer experience through self-service infrastructure and deployment automation.
Lead architecture discussions and establish Kubernetes and DevOps platform standards across engineering teams.

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE)

Define and champion reliability standards, SLAs, SLOs, and operational excellence frameworks.
Lead incident response, root cause analysis, and reliability improvement programs.
Drive performance optimization, scalability enhancements, capacity planning, and disaster recovery strategies.
Build proactive monitoring, observability, and alerting capabilities to improve system health and availability.

GitOps & Automation

Architect and manage GitOps practices using ArgoCD for multi-cluster Kubernetes application delivery.
Automate application deployment, configuration management, and environment provisioning.
Establish deployment governance, release management processes, and operational controls.
Ensure secure, consistent, and auditable deployments across all environments.

Kubernetes & Cloud Infrastructure

Define and evolve enterprise Kubernetes platform architecture, standards, and multi-cluster/multi-region deployment strategies.
Design, deploy, and operate production Kubernetes clusters at scale across cloud environments (EKS, AKS, GKE, or equivalent).
Build and optimize containerized platform solutions using Docker and Kubernetes for high availability and performance.
Lead adoption of Kubernetes-native tooling including Helm, Kustomize, operators, and service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd, or equivalent).
Drive cluster lifecycle management including upgrades, autoscaling, capacity planning, disaster recovery, and cost optimization.
Architect Kubernetes networking, ingress, storage (CSI), CNI, and workload isolation patterns for complex enterprise workloads.
Establish Kubernetes security frameworks including RBAC, network policies, pod security standards, secrets management, and DevSecOps integration.
Drive Infrastructure as Code adoption using Terraform or equivalent technologies for cloud and Kubernetes infrastructure.
Partner with Security and Engineering teams to implement platform governance, compliance, and operational controls.

Technical Leadership & Collaboration

Provide technical leadership and mentorship to engineers across DevOps and platform teams.
Collaborate with Engineering, Product, Infrastructure, and Security stakeholders to drive strategic initiatives.
Participate in architecture reviews and technology roadmap discussions.
Work closely with global teams across EMEA and US regions.
Demonstrate flexibility to work across overlapping business hours and shifts when required to support global stakeholders and critical production environments.
