Cloud Infrastructure and DevOps EngineerUrgent

Manage and evolve cloud-native infrastructure across AWS and/or Azure, with a focus on scalable, secure, resilient, and cost-efficient production environments. Partner with engineering, security, and platform teams to improve deployment reliability and operational maturity.

Build infrastructure as code using Terraform (preferred), CloudFormation, or Bicep. Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or Azure Pipelines; containerize services with Docker; and operate Kubernetes workloads on EKS or AKS.

Implement observability with tools such as CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or Splunk. Automate provisioning and deployments with Python, Bash, or Ansible; troubleshoot production incidents; and apply IAM, networking, secrets-management, DevSecOps, and FinOps best practices.

Strong hands-on AWS and/or Azure experience is required, including cloud networking, load balancing, DNS, and managed services. Experience with microservices, Kafka/SQS/SNS, multi-region/high-availability architecture, and cloud security or platform certifications is beneficial.

Budget range:
Medium project ($1,500 – 3,000 USD)
