Job description
- Requirements Analysis, Secure Architecture Planning & Cross-Functional Coordination
*Perform continuous analysis of complex functional, technical, and security requirements for enterprise-scale, cloud-native applications operating within AWS environments.
Collaborate with application architects, cloud engineers, and security governance teams to design secure development and migration strategies aligned with organizational and regulatory standards.
*Evaluate GitHub Enterprise Cloud (GHEC), Gen3 environments, and enterprise secret-management platforms to identify architectural gaps, compliance risks, and optimization opportunities.
*Define and refine advanced implementation strategies for Gen3-to-Gen3 account migrations, credential governance, and repository lifecycle management.
Produce and maintain detailed technical design documentation, migration blueprints, and operational runbooks in accordance with AWS Well-Architected Framework principles.
- Design, Development, Cloud Engineering & Security Automation
Architect, design, and develop highly scalable backend services and automation frameworks using Python, applying object-oriented design patterns and secure coding methodologies.
*Execute and manage large-scale migrations from GitHub Enterprise Server to GitHub Enterprise Cloud (GHEC), ensuring preservation of source control integrity, audit history, and enterprise access controls.
*Design and implement Gen3-to-Gen3 account migration solutions, ensuring seamless continuity of authentication, authorization, and application integrations across environments.
*Engineer and maintain automated credential rotation mechanisms, enforcing enterprise-mandated 60-day rotation policies across GitHub-integrated and AWS-hosted applications.
*Perform application rehydration by reconstructing cloud environments and redeploying services following security remediation, credential rotation, or configuration changes.
Lead the migration of sensitive configuration data and secrets from HashiCorp Vault to AWS Secrets Manager, implementing encryption, versioning, and least-privilege access controls.
*Refactor and enhance application codebases to dynamically retrieve secrets at runtime using AWS Secrets Manager and Systems Manager Parameter Store.
*Conduct in-depth vulnerability analysis to identify exposed credentials, insecure configurations, and dependency risks, followed by systematic remediation.
Design and implement automation to detect, analyze, and resolve orphaned commits, ensuring source code traceability, governance, and compliance.
*Develop and operationalize GHEC escalation and approval workflows, integrating security reviews and controlled access provisioning.
*Build and deploy cloud-native applications leveraging advanced AWS services including EC2, Lambda, S3, IAM, RDS, and CloudWatch.
*Integrate and optimize CI/CD pipelines incorporating automated security scanning, compliance validation, testing, and deployment controls.
Conduct advanced peer code reviews to validate architectural consistency, security posture, and software quality standards.
- Testing, Validation, Release Engineering & Monitoring
Design and execute comprehensive unit, integration, and system testing strategies to validate functional correctness, security controls, and performance characteristics.
*Perform post-migration and post-remediation validation to ensure secrets, credentials, and access policies are securely enforced.
*Conduct regression testing following architectural changes, security fixes, and cloud environment updates.
*Support controlled software releases across development, staging, and production AWS environments using automated deployment pipelines.
*Monitor application behavior, automation workflows, and security events using AWS observability tools and GitHub audit logging.
*Perform root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions for deployment, runtime, or security-related issues.
- Operational Support, Knowledge Management & Governance
*Provide continuous operational support and maintenance for mission-critical AWS-hosted applications and GitHub automation frameworks.
*Deliver bi-weekly advanced technical support via internal GitHub channels, addressing complex user questions related to repository workflows, security policies, and automation behavior.
*Respond to audit, compliance, and security findings by designing and implementing engineering-driven remediation solutions.
*Author and maintain detailed technical documentation covering cloud architecture, secret-management strategies, credential rotation frameworks, Gen3 migrations, and escalation workflows.
Track and manage work items, enhancements, and incidents using enterprise project management tools such as JIRA.
*Ensure sustained compliance with organizational security policies, cloud governance standards, and software engineering best practices.
