- Own SOC 2 change management processes and maintain complete, audit-ready evidence.
- Work directly with external auditors throughout SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, or equivalent audit cycles.
- Track vulnerability remediation, security patches, and corrective actions.
- Manage endpoint security tooling and triage externally reported vulnerabilities.
- Support customer security questionnaires and security-related sections of RFPs.
3. Identity & Access Management
- Administer identity and access management processes, including access reviews and MFA enforcement.
- Manage privileged access controls and production access permissions.
- Grant, review, and revoke access to databases, VPNs, and deployment tools.
- Maintain appropriate access records and supporting compliance evidence.
4. Operational Support
- Manage infrastructure and access-related tickets requiring change approval or production access.
- Ensure production changes follow established approval and documentation procedures.
- Provide occasional on-call and after-hours support when required for production operations.
- Maintain clear documentation of releases, approvals, incidents, and security activities.
Must-Have Requirements
- 8+ years of overall infrastructure or release engineering experience.
- 5+ years of direct ownership of production release and deployment pipelines, including rollback procedures.
- 5+ years of ownership of SOC 2 or equivalent compliance change management and audit evidence processes.
- 5+ years of hands-on security operations experience.
- Practical experience administering IAM, including access reviews and privileged access controls.
- Experience supporting customer-facing security questionnaires and RFP security sections.
- Direct experience working with external auditors through at least one complete audit cycle.
Nice-to-Have Skills
- AWS security experience, particularly IAM, security groups, and CloudTrail.
- Familiarity with vulnerability disclosure platforms such as HackerOne or Bugcrowd.
- Experience coordinating third-party penetration tests.
- Familiarity with GRC and compliance platforms such as Vanta, Drata, or similar tools.
- Experience with customer trust and security review platforms such as Conveyor or CSA STAR.
- Previous experience working at a SaaS company serving regulated industries.
What We're Looking For
- Strong ownership: Takes responsibility for production releases, security operations, and compliance evidence.
- Sound judgment: Willing to stop or reject a production change that does not meet the required standards and explain the decision clearly.
- Incident management: Maintains a calm, structured approach when deployments fail or production incidents occur.
- Clear communication: Communicates effectively with engineering teams, external auditors, and customer security stakeholders.
- Attention to detail: Maintains accurate documentation, access records, approvals, and audit evidence.
- Execution-focused mindset: Comfortable managing day-to-day operational responsibilities without relying on strategic leadership duties.
What We Offer
- Flexible work environment with Coimbatore office, hybrid, and remote options.
- Paid holidays and flexible time off.
- Medical insurance coverage of up to ₹4 lakh per person for self and family.
- Opportunities to support production infrastructure and security operations for global clients.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)This is a senior role in our Application & Database Modernization pillar, on a specific mission: leading a large-scale VMware-to-AWS migration and landing it in production. VMware estates are exactly where modernization programs go to stall — sprawling dependency graphs, undocumented workloads, and a hypervisor bill that grows while the migration deck gathers dust. Our customers need that estate moved, cut over, and retired, on a date in the contract.
You'll lead the design and implementation of the target infrastructure: Landing Zones built to AWS best practices, EKS-based container platforms, Infrastructure as Code across the stack with Terraform and CloudFormation, and HA, DR, security, and backup strategies that hold up in production. Aedeon absorbs the discovery, dependency-mapping, and validation grind that would otherwise consume the project's first two quarters. You own the judgment calls, architecture tradeoffs, cutover sequencing, risk decisions and you carry them through to production. You'll also mentor engineers and shape long-term infrastructure strategy with customer stakeholders. If you want your migration experience to end in retired VMware clusters rather than revised project plans, this is the role.
What you will do?
- Lead the design and implementation of infrastructure for a large-scale VMware-to-AWS migration — from discovery through production cutover.
- Architect and build secure, scalable, and highly available AWS environments, including Landing Zones that follow AWS best practices.
- Design and implement containerized application platforms on Amazon EKS; exposure to ECS is a plus.
- Implement Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation.
- Define and enforce best practices across security, backups, high availability (HA), disaster recovery (DR), monitoring, and operations.
- Enable configuration management using tools such as Ansible, Chef, or similar.
- Build CI/CD pipelines and manage the complete build and release lifecycle for customer applications.
- Drive automation across provisioning, deployment, and operational workflows.
- Retire legacy infrastructure and land cloud-native architectures in its place.
- Improve and maintain DevOps platforms: Jenkins, Git repositories, monitoring, and observability stacks.
- Provide L3-level support for complex infrastructure and platform issues.
- Work with stakeholders on technical strategy and long-term architecture.
- Mentor engineers, contribute to talent evaluation, and support team development.
What are we looking for?
- 6+ years of hands-on DevOps experience, with strong expertise in designing and managing cloud infrastructure.
- Strong experience in VMware-to-AWS migration projects or large-scale infrastructure migrations.
- 4+ years of Terraform and CloudFormation for Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
- 4+ years in configuration management, systems engineering, and managing production-grade infrastructure.
- Solid Linux and/or Windows administration background.
- Deep understanding of AWS services, including VPC, EC2, IAM, EKS, ECS, RDS, S3, Backup, CloudWatch, etc.
- Experience with Kubernetes (EKS), ECS, and Docker in production environments.
- Hands-on experience designing HA, DR, security, and backup strategies.
- Experience with Landing Zone setup, multi-account strategy, and AWS governance frameworks.
- Proficiency in Git with a strong understanding of branching and merging strategies.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines, automation, and operational tooling.
- A problem-solving mindset that's proactive and oriented toward reliability, performance, and scalability.
You will be preferred if
- Experience across multiple cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
- AWS certifications such as Solutions Architect Associate/Professional or DevOps Engineer Professional.
- Exposure to data platforms such as Amazon EMR, Redshift, Lake Formation, and SageMaker.
- Experience designing cloud architectures at an L3/Architect level.
