• Design and implement CI/CD pipelines for application and cloud architecture patterns utilizing tools like Jenkins and cloud-native toolchains.
• Create automated tooling for deploying service requests and build comprehensive runbooks for managing, detecting, remediating, and restoring services.
• Troubleshoot complex distributed architecture service maps and be on-call for high severity incidents, improving runbooks to enhance mean time to resolve (MTTR).
• Lead blameless postmortems on availability issues and drive actions to prevent recurrences.

Qualifications Required

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field involving coding, or equivalent job experience.
• 5-7 years of experience in software engineering, systems administration, database administration, and networking.
• 2+ years of experience in developing and/or administering software in public cloud environments.
• Proficiency in programming languages like Python, Bash, Java, Go, JavaScript, and/or node.js.
• Cross-functional knowledge in systems, storage, networking, security, and databases.
