Hands-on experience administering and troubleshooting Argo Workflows or comparable workflow orchestration platforms.
Strong Infrastructure as Code experience with Terraform and source-controlled infrastructure practices.
Experience building, hardening, and supporting CI/CD pipelines and production release processes.
Strong experience with monitoring, logging, alerting, and incident-routing tools such as Splunk, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, or comparable platforms.
Demonstrated ability to lead complex incident resolution, perform root-cause analysis, and translate findings into preventive improvements.
Proficiency in automation and scripting using Python, Shell, Bash, or similar languages.
Ability to make well-reasoned technical decisions, identify tradeoffs, estimate work, and drive improvements across a complex platform.
Experience mentoring engineers and collaborating effectively with Data Engineering, Security, Governance, Analytics, and business stakeholders.

Responsibilities

Provide senior technical ownership for the Cloud / DevOps service tower during the LatAm coverage window, including day-to-day operations, complex troubleshooting, and L2/L3 escalation.
Operate, maintain, and improve AWS infrastructure supporting the Data Platform, including Amazon EKS, S3, EventBridge, SQS, API Gateway, Lambda, and related services.
Administer Kubernetes-hosted workloads and Argo Workflows, including deployment, scheduling, monitoring, troubleshooting, capacity management, resiliency, and recovery.
Define and improve standards for Infrastructure as Code, configuration management, CI/CD, release execution, rollback, and environment consistency, primarily using Terraform and Git-based delivery practices.
Lead the consolidation and improvement of observability across infrastructure and data workloads, linking alerts to operational evidence from Argo, dbt, Snowflake, and supporting runbooks.
Improve alert routing and escalation workflows across tools such as Splunk, Opsgenie, PagerDuty, Microsoft Teams, and data-specific observability platforms.
Lead or support major incident response, root-cause analysis, post-incident reviews, and corrective actions, with clear communication to technical and service stakeholders.
Design and implement reliability improvements such as selective auto-remediation, dependency-aware alert correlation, impact analysis, and automation of repetitive operational work.
Track and contribute to service metrics including availability, SLA compliance, alert volumes, workflow reliability, deployment outcomes, and mean time to restore service.
Apply disciplined change-management, access-control, secrets-management, auditability, and documentation practices appropriate for a HIPAA-, GDPR-, and FDA-regulated environment.
Create and maintain runbooks, operating procedures, architecture context, recovery procedures, and knowledge-transfer materials.
Mentor Middle-level engineers, review technical work, improve team practices, and promote consistent execution across the distributed team.
Participate in the Cloud / DevOps on-call rotation for critical incidents outside staffed service hours.
