Participate in architecting, building, and migrating our next-generation infrastructure based on Kubernetes (on-prem) to the cloud
Migrate internal microservices and data services to the new infrastructure
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (we use GitLab) to meet security and software compliance, and improve system observability through monitoring and alerting

Strong proficiency in AWS (EKS, managed services, VPC, IAM) and Kubernetes — deploying, operating, and troubleshooting production workloads
Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI preferred) and GitOps tooling (Argo CD)
Solid Infrastructure-as-Code experience — Terraform required; Pulumi is a plus
Deep Linux systems knowledge; comfortable diagnosing issues at the OS, process, and network level
Strong networking fundamentals: VPCs, subnetting, NAT, firewalls, VPNs, DNS
Proficiency in at least one scripting/programming language: Python, Go, or Bash/Shell
Strong understanding of Platform Engineering and DevSecOps principles — you treat security, reliability, and developer experience as first-class concerns
Experience with observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, alerting) and a habit of instrumenting what you build
Comfortable with Git-based workflows: branching strategies, code review, and merge/release processes
Strong communication skills — able to explain infrastructure decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
