  • Implement and maintain monitoring and log aggregation solutions using Datadog, ELK/OpenSearch, and other relevant tools.
  • Ensure the security and compliance of cloud environments through proper configuration management, networking, and identity management (AD, DNS, SSO).
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate cloud-native solutions and automate operational tasks.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional experience as a Systems Administrator / DevOps Engineer, with at least 2 years in a lead role.
  • Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university in computer science, information systems, electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field is preferred. Equivalent work experience in a similar position may be substituted for educational requirements.
  • Strong scripting and automation experience in PowerShell and/or Python.
  • Proficiency in using Puppet for configuration management and automation.
  • Extensive experience with automation tools and scripts (e.g., Ansible, Terraform, Jenkins) aimed at improving operational efficiency.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP, and experience in Kubernetes/EKS is highly preferred.
  • Understanding of network configurations, security best practices, and technologies like VPNs, OpenVPN, and SSO.
  • Familiarity with DevOps tools like Git, Jenkins, Argo CD, and Artifactory.
  • Experience with monitoring tools such as Datadog and log aggregation platforms like ELK/OpenSearch.
  • Proficiency in spoken and written English (minimum C1/C2 level desired).
