Position Overview:
We are seeking a hands-on Senior SRE / DevOps Engineer to design, operate, secure, and continuously improve highly available cloud platforms and delivery systems. The role combines production engineering, cloud operations, Kubernetes platform ownership, CI/CD automation, observability, incident management, and security operations. The successful candidate will own reliability outcomes across application and infrastructure services, reduce operational toil through automation, guide engineering teams on production readiness, and provide expert support for AWS and Amazon EKS. This is a senior individual-contributor role requiring strong technical judgment, disciplined operational practices, and the ability to lead during high-severity incidents.
Key Responsibilities:
Source Control & CI/CD Engineering
Administer Bitbucket and GitLab repos, branching strategies, merge controls, and release governance.
Design and maintain Jenkins and GitLab CI/CD pipelines with reusable templates, shared libraries, and environment promotion models.
Integrate code-quality, security, container, and secret scanning into pipelines; eliminate plaintext secrets via approved secret-management platforms.
Enable safe deployment strategies (rolling, blue-green, canary) with automated rollback; troubleshoot pipeline, runner, webhook, and dependency failures.
Cloud Operations & AWS Platform Management
Own cloud environments end-to-end across dev, test, staging, and production: provisioning, patching, backup, recovery, and lifecycle management.
Operate core AWS services (EC2, Auto Scaling, VPC, ELB, Lambda, Route 53, S3, EBS, IAM, KMS, RDS, EMR, CloudWatch, CloudTrail, Systems Manager) and design resilient multi-AZ network/compute patterns.
Implement infrastructure as code via Terraform with a peer review, drift detection, and reusable modules.
Define and test backup, DR, and HA procedures with documented RTO/RPO; manage tagging, cost optimization, and patching cycles.
Containers, Docker & Amazon EKS
Lead secure, optimized application Dockerization: multi-stage builds, minimal base images, non-root execution, registry practices.
Design, provision, upgrade, and support production-grade EKS clusters, managed node groups, networking, ingress, and add-on lifecycle.
Operate Kubernetes workloads (Deployments, Stateful Sets, Services, Ingress, Jobs, PodDisruptionBudgets) and deploy via Helm and GitOps.
Implement EKS security controls (RBAC, IAM Roles for Service Accounts, network policies, least privilege); troubleshoot scheduling, networking, and autoscaling issues.
Logging, Monitoring & Observability
Engineer centralized log management using Splunk and/or Datadog: collection, parsing, retention, dashboards, and alerting.
Deploy and maintain Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager for platform and application monitoring.
Define SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, and availability targets; build role-specific dashboards for execs, ops, and engineers.
Tune alerts to be actionable and severity-based, reducing noise; ensure every critical alert has an owner and runbook.
Reliability & Production Operations
Participate in and improve the escalation paths.
Lead major-incident response (triage, stabilization, communication, recovery) and drive blameless post-incident reviews.
Maintain runbooks, SOPs, dependency maps, and production-readiness checklists; automate repetitive tasks via Python, Bash, and APIs.
Perform capacity planning, resilience testing, and mentor engineers in troubleshooting and reliability practices.
Security Operations & Vulnerability Management
Own vulnerability-management workflows across OS, containers, dependencies, cloud, Kubernetes, and CI/CD components.
Coordinate VAPT: validate findings, assess impact, assign remediation owners, track SLAs, and provide closure evidence.
Integrate SAST, DAST, dependency, container, IaC, and secret scanning into pipelines; apply hardening baselines.
Support IAM reviews, key/certificate rotation, privileged-access controls, audit logging, and compliance/risk reporting.
Qualifications:
10–12+ years in DevOps, SRE, cloud, platform, or production operations engineering, with 3+ years in a senior/lead capacity.
Demonstrated production ownership on AWS: EC2, VPC, load balancers, S3, RDS, EMR, CloudWatch, IAM.
Deep hands-on experience with Git, Bitbucket, GitLab, Jenkins, and GitLab CI/CD, including pipeline design, troubleshooting, and governance.
Expert-level Docker and Kubernetes experience, including building, operating, and upgrading Amazon EKS clusters and workloads.
Hands-on experience with Splunk, and Monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana, and Alert manager.
Practical infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform, Helm) and strong Python/Bash automation skills.
Solid understanding of Linux administration, TCP/IP, DNS, TLS, HTTP, load balancing, IAM, storage, and distributed systems.
Experience with incident management, RCA, post-incident reviews, SLOs, capacity planning, and backup/recovery.
Experience managing vulnerabilities and VAPT findings and implementing security controls across cloud, container, OS, and delivery platforms.
Clear written and verbal communication, and calm decision-making under pressure across engineering, security, and business teams.
