Key Responsibilities 

• Architect, deploy, and maintain scalable, highly available infrastructure across both public cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and private cloud platforms (OpenStack, VMware vSphere/Tanzu, Nutanix, or similar). 
• Operate and maintain on-premises infrastructure: hypervisors, compute, storage (Ceph, NetApp, SAN/NAS), networking (SDN, VLANs, BGP, MPLS), and hardware capacity planning, alongside their public cloud equivalents. 
• Design and own CI/CD pipelines that deploy seamlessly across public and private environments. 
• Implement and manage Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Pulumi) with strong version control and review practices, using providers for both public and private cloud platforms. 
• Manage container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS, OpenShift, Rancher) across managed cloud services and self-managed/bare-metal clusters, including upgrades, autoscaling, and workload reliability. 
• Build observability into all systems through logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, or similar) with unified visibility across hybrid environments. 
• Champion security best practices: secrets management, IAM hardening, network segmentation, vulnerability scanning, and compliance (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or data-sovereignty requirements). 
• Lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and post-mortems; drive long-term reliability improvements and SLO/SLA adherence. 
• Optimize cost, capacity, and resource utilization across public cloud spend and on-premises hardware without compromising performance or availability. 
• Partner with data center operations and network providers on hardware provisioning, firmware management, MPLS circuit management, and lifecycle planning. 
• Mentor junior DevOps and software engineers; promote DevOps culture, automation-first thinking, and shared ownership of production. 
• Evaluate and introduce new tools, platforms, and processes that improve developer productivity and system reliability. 

Required Qualifications 

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering roles, with at least 2 years at a senior level. 
• Deep expertise with at least one major public cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) in production. 
• Hands-on experience operating private cloud or virtualization platforms (OpenStack, VMware, Nutanix, or equivalent) in production. 
• Strong experience with virtualization, storage systems, and enterprise networking in on-premises environments. 
• Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production, including both managed cloud and self-managed/bare-metal clusters. 
• Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and Ansible strongly preferred). 
• Solid scripting and programming skills in Python, Go, Bash, or similar. 
• Experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI, or ArgoCD. 
• Strong Linux systems administration and networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, VPNs, firewalls, routing, MPLS). 
• Experience with monitoring and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic, ELK, or OpenTelemetry). 
• Proven track record of leading incident response and improving system reliability. 
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate across engineering, security, infrastructure, and product teams. 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Experience designing hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, including secure connectivity (Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, MPLS, VPN, SD-WAN) between public and private environments. 
• Familiarity with service meshes (Istio, Linkerd), API gateways, and GitOps workflows (ArgoCD, Flux). 
• Background in security-focused or regulated environments and exposure to compliance frameworks. 
• Experience with database administration (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB) in cloud-managed and self-hosted setups. 
• Contributions to open-source DevOps or cloud infrastructure tooling. 
• Relevant certifications (AWS Solutions Architect / DevOps Engineer, Azure Administrator, CKA, CKAD, RHCE, VMware VCP, OpenStack Certified Administrator, HashiCorp Terraform Associate).
