• Implement and maintain GitOps workflows using ArgoCD for continuous delivery to Kubernetes clusters.
• Create and optimize CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to automate build, test, and deployment workflows.
• Use Crossplane for declarative, Kubernetes-based infrastructure-as-code to manage cloud resources.
• Write and maintain Ansible playbooks for configuration management, automation, and deployment scripting.
• Embed security throughout the DevOps lifecycle (DevSecOps), including IAM policies, secret management, encryption, and compliance enforcement.
• Build and maintain observability infrastructure, including logging, metrics, alerting, and distributed tracing.
• Champion code review practices, Git branching strategies, and collaboration standards across the engineering organization.
• Drive automated testing integration within CI/CD pipelines to ensure quality and coverage.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Platform Engineering roles.
• Deep hands-on experience with AWS services (EC2, EKS, VPC, IAM, S3, RDS, CloudWatch, etc.).
• Strong proficiency with Kubernetes, including cluster management, workload orchestration, and troubleshooting.
• Experience building and managing CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or similar platforms.
