• Build reusable Helm charts and deployment templates
• Ensure scalability, reliability, and cost optimization

Messaging, Identity & Data Systems

• Set up and manage RabbitMQ from scratch (HA, clustering, failover)
• Work with PostgreSQL (basic administration, performance awareness)
• Implement and manage Keycloak for authentication and authorization

Monitoring, Reliability & Performance

• Implement monitoring and observability using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK
• Define SLIs/SLOs and improve system reliability
• Perform root cause analysis and implement preventive measures

Security & Best Practices

• Implement DevSecOps practices across pipelines and infrastructure
• Manage secrets, access controls, and compliance requirements
• Ensure secure communication and network configurations

Process & Strategy

• Drive DevOps maturity across projects
• Standardize tools, frameworks, and reusable modules
• Stay updated with emerging technologies and introduce improvements

Required Skills

• Strong expertise in DevOps principles and platform engineering
• Hands‑on experience with Azure Cloud (mandatory)
• Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Helm
• Strong experience with CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins)
• Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform preferred)
• Experience with RabbitMQ setup and management
• Knowledge of PostgreSQL and Keycloak
• Strong scripting skills (Bash / Python)
• Experience with monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK)
• Solid understanding of networking and system design

Good to Have

• Experience with multi-cloud or hybrid cloud environments
• Experience in cloud migration (Azure ↔ On-Prem)
• Exposure to GitOps tools (ArgoCD / FluxCD)
• Knowledge of security best practices and compliance

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field
