• Observability & SRE Practices: Perform root-cause analysis of production incidents and mature our observability, logging, and metrics-gathering tools to improve system reliability.
• DevSecOps: Ensure security by design, governance, and compliance across our systems, proactively monitoring vulnerabilities and embedding automated security testing directly into development workflows.
• CI/CD & Release Engineering: Drive continuous improvement and continuous delivery, ensuring we deploy confidently and quickly by optimizing testing and deployment processes within our CI/CD pipelines.

Essential Skills

We expect a strong candidate to show experience and expertise in:

• Advanced Infrastructure as Code using industry-standard tools (e.g., Terraform)
• Core cloud platform engineering (e.g., AWS), specifically utilizing container orchestration, content delivery networks, serverless architectures, event routers, and message queues
• Securing infrastructure, applications, and data in a hybrid cloud environment
• Designing and maintaining robust CI/CD Automation pipelines
• Implementation of open-source standards for observability (e.g., OpenTelemetry)
• Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and system-debugging skills

Desired Skills

We are also keen to discuss experience in:

• FinOps practices, including cost control, optimization, and calculation in cloud environments
• Asynchronous architectural patterns, distributed systems, and event-driven engineering
• Strong programming experience or a software development background
• Alignment with international compliance frameworks, data privacy laws, and industry-specific regulatory guidelines (e.g., ISO standards, GDPR, Quality Management Systems)
