• Support application teams in migrating and deploying microservices to Kubernetes.
• Design, build, and standardize CI/CD pipelines for containerized applications.
• Implement and enhance observability solutions, including monitoring, logging, and distributed tracing.
• Develop dashboards, alerting strategies, and service reliability reporting.
• Participate in production support activities, incident management, root cause analysis, and platform improvement initiatives.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning and environment management using Infrastructure as Code.
• Collaborate effectively with globally distributed engineering teams.
• Produce technical documentation and contribute to knowledge-sharing initiatives.

Required Skills & Experience

• Several years of experience in a DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Engineering role.
• Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including Deployments, Services, Ingress, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and production troubleshooting.

• Helm chart development and standardization.
• Experience with Istio or other service mesh technologies.
• Knowledge of container security best practices and tooling.
• Previous involvement in large-scale cloud migration or platform modernization programs.

What We Offer

• Opportunity to contribute to a large-scale cloud transformation initiative.
• Exposure to modern cloud-native technologies and Kubernetes-based platforms.
• Collaboration with experienced international engineering teams.
• Long-term engagement within a strategic technology program.
• Flexible hybrid working model.
• Professional growth opportunities in Cloud Engineering, Platform Engineering, DevOps, and Observability domains.
