  • Troubleshooting production issues, conducting root cause analysis, and responding promptly to incidents
  • Managing infrastructure using modern Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tooling and container platforms
  • Ensuring high system availability and responsiveness across multiple data centre environments

Technical Environment Includes:

  • Java, Maven, NPM for application builds
  • Cypress for automated testing
  • Git for source control
  • Terraform and Ansible for infrastructure configuration
  • OpenShift, RHEL/CentOS, and Docker for deployment targets
  • InfluxDB and Grafana for monitoring and observability
  • Oracle (or equivalent RDBMS), AMQP, and S3-compatible object storage systems
