About the job
What You Will Do Design, build, and maintain highly available cloud architectures on platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP. Write, test, and deploy Infrastructure as Code using tools like Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, or Bicep. Implement GitOps deployment workflows using tools such as ArgoCD, Flux, or Spinnaker to enable continuous delivery to Kubernetes clusters. Configure secure networking, strict IAM policies, and container orchestration (Docker/Kubernetes), including service mesh technologies like Istio, Linkerd, or Consul. Enforce policy-as-code guardrails using frameworks such as OPA/Rego, HashiCorp Sentinel, or Checkov to prevent misconfigurations before deployment. Build observability and monitoring stacks using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or CloudWatch to ensure SLA compliance. Conduct architectural audits to identify security vulnerabilities and reduce cloud compute costs using FinOps tools such as AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Cost Management, or Kubecost. What We’re Looking For 5+ years of cloud engineering and architecture experience. Expert-level proficiency in at least one IaC tool (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, etc.) and CI/CD pipeline automation. Active cloud certification such as AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Solutions Architect, or Google Cloud Professional (or equivalent). Experience with container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS, or equivalent) and at least one GitOps or continuous-delivery framework. A strict security-first mindset, with experience in cloud compliance guardrails and policy-as-code enforcement.
