CI/CD Pipeline Development & Maintenance

• Design, build, and maintain automated continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.

• Ensure the software build, test, and deployment processes are automated and consistent.

Infrastructure & Cloud Management

• Implement and manage infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation.

• Provision, configure, and scale infrastructure on cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP).

Automation & Scripting

• Automate repetitive tasks and workflows using scripting languages (Python, Bash, PowerShell).

• Reduce manual intervention in development and deployment processes.

Monitoring, Logging & Reliability

• Implement system monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability solutions to track performance and detect issues.

• Respond to incidents, troubleshoot problems, and optimize reliability and uptime.

Security & Compliance (DevSecOps)

• Integrate security practices into pipelines (DevSecOps) and ensure secure configurations and compliance.

• Perform vulnerability scanning and enforce security policies across environments.

Collaboration & Culture

• Work closely with development, QA, and operations teams to foster a collaborative DevOps culture.

• Support agile practices, documentation, and process improvements.
