• CI/CD Pipeline Architecture: Design and implement automated build, test, and release pipelines utilizing Azure DevOps (ADO).
• DevSecOps & Vulnerability Management: Implement and manage GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS). Configure CodeQL, secret scanning, and Dependabot to ensure code and dependencies are secure before deployment.
• Identity & Access Management: Integrate and manage Single Sign-On (SSO) protocols (such as SAML or OIDC) across Kubernetes clusters, Azure DevOps, GitHub, and internal applications to ensure secure, role-based access.
• Monitoring & Reliability: Proactively monitor system performance, troubleshoot operational issues, and ensure infrastructure reliability and uptime.

Must-Have Qualifications

• Linux Expertise: 4+ years of hands-on experience in Linux system administration, OS-level troubleshooting, kernel tuning, and shell scripting.
• Amazon EKS (Strict Requirement): Proven, production-grade experience building, upgrading, and managing Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) clusters.
• Azure DevOps: Strong experience creating multi-stage YAML pipelines, managing release gates, and utilizing Azure Repos/Artifacts.
• Security & GHAS: Practical experience deploying and managing GitHub Advanced Security features (Code Scanning, Secret Scanning) within enterprise environments.
• SSO Integration: Solid understanding of Identity and Access Management concepts with hands-on experience configuring SSO (OIDC/OAuth2/SAML) for developer tools and cloud environments.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Proficiency with tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, or Ansible for provisioning infrastructure.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Experience with identity providers like Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), Okta, or Keycloak.
• Familiarity with Kubernetes-native deployment tools (Helm, ArgoCD).
• Experience operating in a strictly regulated compliance environment (e.g., SOC2, ISO 27001).
