• Collaborate with stakeholders to translate business goals into technical roadmaps, selecting the right mix of cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP) and platforms (Red Hat OpenShift, Kubernetes).
• Provide hands‑on technical leadership to development teams, conducting code reviews and ensuring best practices in software development (Java, C#, Python, or Node.js).
• Define and enforce standards for infrastructure as code (IaC), automated testing, and release management to accelerate time‑to‑market.
• Mentor senior developers and engineers, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and technical excellence.

Qualifications

• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to navigate complex architectural challenges in distributed systems.
• Proven experience in leading technical teams and influencing decision‑making at a strategic level.

• Proven experience with application modernization strategies, effectively refactoring or re‑platforming legacy applications into cloud‑native ecosystems (Strangler Fig pattern, Anti‑Corruption Layer, etc.).
• Demonstrated experience implementing AI‑assisted engineering, utilizing Generative AI tools to automate boilerplate code, generate unit tests, and improve documentation reliability.
• Extensive experience with Containerization and Orchestration, specifically Docker, Kubernetes, and enterprise platforms like Red Hat OpenShift.
• Proficiency in one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP) with the ability to design cloud‑agnostic or hybrid solutions.
• Strong understanding of DevOps and DevSecOps principles, with hands‑on experience setting up CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps) and Test Automation.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation.
