## About the Role

o Terraform Expertise: 5+ years designing, developing, debugging, and maintaining Terraform-based infrastructure for AWS. Must have direct experience provisioning/managing infrastructure using Terraform (not just consuming prebuilt modules) and deep understanding of state management, resource dependencies, module versioning, and policy controls.
o Container & Kubernetes Depth: 5+ years of experience with containerized workloads and 3+ years of hands-on Kubernetes or EKS experience in production environments. Thorough understanding of cluster operations, workload deployment, Helm, kubectl, autoscaling, networking, and IAM/RBAC integration.

## Description

o AWS Production Support: Independently diagnose complex issues, lead root-cause analysis, and drive reliable solutions across AWS services including ECS, EKS, S3, Lambda, DocumentDB, DynamoDB, IAM, networking, logging, and monitoring.
o Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Provision, design, develop, debug, and maintain enterprise-scale Terraform infrastructure. Build reusable modules, manage remote state, review execution plans, troubleshoot drift, and safely apply change automation across environments.
o Container & Kubernetes Management: Manage and maintain Helm charts and Kubernetes manifests for application and platform deployments. Lead or contribute to production deployments, upgrades, incident resolution, and operational support for EKS/Kubernetes platforms.
o Deployment & CI/CD Pipelines: Deploy and troubleshoot distributed applications using Docker, ECS, Kubernetes, or EKS (incorporating service discovery, ingress/load balancing, network policies, and logging/monitoring) via GitOps or CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Harness, Argo CD, Flux).
o Technical Leadership & Documentation: Take ownership of ambiguous production issues, explain technical risks and tradeoffs to leadership and cross-functional teams, mentor junior/mid-level engineers, and produce clear runbooks, design notes, and support documentation.
o Operational Excellence: Maintain observability, incident response, change management, security hardening, disaster recovery awareness, and continuous improvement of platform reliability, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency.
