• Resolving JIRA tickets in the areas of Cloud, CI/CD, deployments, monitoring, etc
• Willingness to challenge the status quo to bring new ideas and innovation to the team
• Responsible for ongoing maintenance and support of internal tools, improving system health and reliability
• Document and provide cross-training to peers for projects and products worked on
• Ensure service uptimes to maintain the SLA-driven uptime

Requirements

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience as a DevOps Engineer, SRE, or Platform Engineer
• Strong hands-on experience with AWS networking services (VPC, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, Route 53, NLB/ALB)
• Deep knowledge of Kubernetes/EKS networking (CNI, CoreDNS, ingress controllers, service meshes, network policies)
• Experience with voice protocols such as RTP, SIP, and VoIP-related traffic optimization
• Proven experience with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)
• Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash)
• Familiarity with monitoring & logging tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog, etc.), including voice/media traffic monitoring
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to collaborate across teams

Nice to Have

• Experience with multi-region/multi-account networking
• Familiarity with service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd)
• Knowledge of GitOps practices (ArgoCD, Flux)
• Experience with cost optimization strategies in cloud environments
