AWS Devops, Terraform

Position: AWS DevOps SME

Description:

We are looking for a hands-on AWS DevOps Subject Matter Expert (SME) to design, build, and operate secure, scalable CI/CD and platform automation across AWS. The ideal candidate will lead DevOps and DevSecOps practices, implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC), enable self-service PaaS capabilities for application teams (containers and serverless), and drive reliability, observability, and operational excellence for production workloads.

Total Experience - 12 to 15 years of proven experience. This role emphasizes end-to-end DevOps ownership across build, release, deployment, and run operations. The ideal candidate will support architecture implementation, troubleshoot production issues, and drive CI/CD pipeline efficiency across cloud-native environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• 8+ years in DevOps/Platform Engineering with strong AWS delivery focus; act as SME for CI/CD, IaC, and cloud automation
• Design and implement standardized CI/CD patterns for microservices, containers, and serverless workloads across multiple environments/accounts
• Build and operate deployment automation using GitOps and pipeline tooling (e.g., ArgoCD, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline/CodeBuild)
• Enable container platform delivery and operations on Amazon EKS (cluster add-ons, ingress, autoscaling, upgrades, multi-tenant consumption, and release governance)

• Automate cloud platform provisioning and application delivery using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and reusable modules/templates:

• Terraform, AWS CDK, and CloudFormation (with proper state, drift, and change management)

• Implement, optimize, and govern CI/CD pipelines including build/test automation, artifact management, promotion strategies, and approvals:

• Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and AWS native tooling (CodePipeline/CodeBuild/CodeDeploy)

• Own production support for deployment and platform issues; perform root-cause analysis and drive continuous improvements via automation and runbooks
• Partner with architects, security, and product teams to define DevOps standards, reference architectures, and platform roadmaps
• Strong scripting/programming skills (Python, Bash,) and experience building automation around AWS APIs

• Drive DevSecOps controls in pipelines and platforms (secrets management, IAM least privilege, policy-as-code, image scanning, SAST/DAST integration)

• Strong AWS foundations: VPC, Route 53, Transit Gateway, WAF, security groups/NACLs, IAM, KMS, and multi-account networking patterns

Qualifications:

• AWS Certified DevOps Engineer Professional (preferred)
• AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate or Professional
• AWS Certified Developer Associate (good to have)
• Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) / Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD)
