Job description

Responsibilities:

• Deploy and Operate Scalable Platforms-Implement, support, and optimize scalable, resilient, and highly available cloud-native, hybrid-cloud, and on-premises platform solutions that support enterprise applications and technology services. Collaborate with development and architecture teams to ensure platform reliability, performance, security, and operational efficiency.
• Maintain Enterprise Platform Standards and Best Practices-Adhere to established architectural guidelines, design principles, and technology standards for cloud platforms, microservices, container orchestration, messaging systems, databases, and integration services. Contribute to continuous improvements that enhance platform stability, scalability, and maintainability.
• Implement and Support Container Platforms-Deploy, administer, and continuously improve Kubernetes-based platforms across cloud and on-premises environments, including AWS EKS, ECS, and enterprise data centres. Manage Helm-based application deployments, platform upgrades, capacity planning, infrastructure automation, and troubleshooting to ensure highly available and resilient services.
• Implement Kubernetes Security, Governance and Compliance Controls -Design, implement, and maintain Kubernetes security policies using tools such as Kyverno and container image scanning solutions. Enforce RBAC, Network Policies, Pod Security Standards, admission controls, secrets management, workload isolation, and security baselines. Continuously monitor platform compliance, perform vulnerability assessments, support security audits, and ensure adherence to enterprise security, governance, and regulatory requirements across all Kubernetes environment
• Manage Event-Driven and Messaging Platforms-Deploy, configure, and support messaging and streaming platforms including Apache Kafka (KRaft) and RabbitMQ. Monitor platform health, optimize performance, manage cluster operations, and support event-driven architectures that enable scalable and loosely coupled distributed systems.
• Build and Maintain CI/CD Pipelines–Design, implement, and support automated CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, ArgoCD, GitLab, and related DevOps tools. Ensure secure, reliable, and efficient software delivery through automation, deployment validation, release orchestration, and adherence to DevSecOps and governance requirements.
