• Conduct capacity and performance reviews, identify constraints and implement improvements to availability, scalability and performance.
• Design, implement and validate high availability, backup, disaster recovery and business continuity solutions for AWS workloads.
• Implement secure identity and access controls using AWS IAM roles and policies, following least-privilege principles.
• Build and upgrade cloud environments for new clients, including application integration and migration-related infrastructure.
• Work with development and platform teams to improve deployment reliability, resilience, performance and operational readiness.
• Contribute to technical documentation, operational runbooks, architecture standards and implementation guidelines.
• Participate in technical design reviews and evaluate solutions for security, scalability, availability, maintainability and operational supportability.

Required qualifications

• 9 to 14 years of overall experience in cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, DevOps, production engineering or Site Reliability Engineering, with strong recent hands-on AWS experience.
