• Improve platform stability, uptime, scalability, performance, elasticity, and operational resilience.
• Support Docker-based deployments and future container orchestration initiatives.
• Manage and improve infrastructure related to NGINX, TLS, routing, certificates, application services, APIs, and runtime components.
• Support deployment pipelines for Java, Tomcat, Spring Boot, Python, FastAPI, Angular, TypeScript, .NET, and containerized services.
• Improve release management through validation steps, smoke tests, deployment gates, rollback plans, and environment checks.
• Help prevent production issues by identifying risks before changes are deployed.
• Participate in incident response, troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and corrective action planning.
• Create and maintain runbooks, deployment documentation, operational procedures, and environment standards.
• Improve observability through better logging, monitoring, alerting, tracing, dashboards, and service health indicators.
• Support vulnerability prevention and remediation through scanning, dependency reviews, patching, secure configuration, and DevSecOps practices.
• Support secure secrets management, certificate management, access controls, and least-privilege operating practices.
• Support SOC 2 controls, audit readiness, customer security reviews, and operational evidence collection.
• Help ensure operational issues are documented, addressed, and not repeated.
• Use AI tools responsibly to accelerate scripting, troubleshooting, documentation, and analysis, while validating all outputs before production use.

• 3 to 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, or Platform Engineering.
• Strong experience with Microsoft Azure environments.
• Experience building and managing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub, GitHub Actions, or similar tools.

• Working knowledge of Windows Server, Windows services, PowerShell, and enterprise Windows environments.
• Experience supporting mixed operating system environments across cloud, hybrid, and customer-hosted deployments.
• Experience with NGINX, TLS certificates, reverse proxy configuration, and web application routing.
• Experience supporting production SaaS applications.
• Strong understanding of cloud networking, monitoring, logging, operational security, and incident response.
• Scripting or automation experience using PowerShell, Python, Bash, JavaScript, or similar languages.
• Strong troubleshooting, documentation, and problem-solving skills.
• Sound judgment around production risk, change management, release readiness, and rollback planning.

• Experience with Java, Maven, Tomcat, Spring Boot, Python, FastAPI, .NET, Angular, and TypeScript environments.
• Experience with SQL Server, MongoDB, backup and restore processes, database connectivity, and performance monitoring.
• Experience with Azure Key Vault, managed identity, centralized secrets management, and least-privilege access.
• Experience with observability tools such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, Application Insights, Datadog, New Relic, or similar platforms.
• Familiarity with RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus, Temporal, or distributed task queue technologies.
• Experience with SBOMs, artifact signing, code signing, software supply chain security, and secure release practices.
• Experience supporting SOC 2, customer security reviews, vendor risk reviews, or regulated enterprise environments.
• Experience supporting banking, financial services, credit union, retail, or other regulated customer environments.
• Startup or high-growth SaaS company experience.
