• Focus on security across applications, APIs, CI/CD pipelines, and hybrid cloud environments.
• Guide adoption of engineering practices across business units.
• Set standards for LLMOps, GenAI integration, and data vectorization.
• Contribute to decisions on technology direction and strategy.

Key Skills

• LLMOps and experience with Generative AI integration
• Programming experience in Go (Golang), Java, Kotlin, JavaScript/Node.js, or Python
• Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes (K8s) and OpenShift
• Experience with MongoDB, Kafka, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Grafana
• Familiarity with tools like Helm, Kustomize, Terraform, and Vault
• Proven experience with hybrid cloud environments (on-prem + public cloud)
• Ability to explain complex ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
• Comfortable learning new technologies and driving technical direction
