● Own and operate CI/CD pipelines for multiple environments, ensuring reliable and automated releases.
● Manage container orchestration and workloads using Kubernetes, including cluster operations and upgrades.
● Implement and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform or similar tools for cloud resource management.
● Monitor cloud and Kubernetes system health, performance, reliability, and cost efficiency.
● Ensure strong cloud security practices, including IAM, secrets management, network policies, and compliance controls.
● Automate cloud deployments, scaling, failover, and incident response workflows.
● Collaborate with backend, QA, and product teams to support release planning and execution.
● Troubleshoot cloud production issues, lead root-cause analysis, and implement preventive improvements.

○ Dynamic DNS and wildcard subdomains
○ Blue-green and canary deployment strategies

● Strong understanding of:
○ Microservices architecture, APIs, networking, and cloud security best practices
○ Environment isolation strategies (dev, UAT, staging, production)
○ Secure database connectivity (read-only access, restricted IPs, proxies/bastions)
○ Kubernetes scaling, autoscaling (HPA/VPA), and resource management

● Proficiency in Linux system administration, shell scripting, troubleshooting, and automation.
● Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting systems (Prometheus, Grafana,ELK/EFK, OCI Monitoring).
