Job description

Infrastructure Automation (Terraform + Ansible)

Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform across cloud and/or virtualized environments.
Automate configuration, provisioning, patching, and deployments using Ansible across Linux/Unix and Windows estates.
Standardize environments (dev/test/stage/prod), build reusable modules/playbooks, and enforce configuration consistency (prevent drift).
Hybrid / Enterprise Infrastructure Operations

Operate and troubleshoot infrastructure components end-to-end, including:
Compute (VMs/servers), virtualization platforms (e.g., VMware or equivalent),
Networking (DNS, routing, VPNs, proxies), load balancers, firewalls/security controls,
Partner with application teams to ensure infrastructure supports scalable, reliable application delivery.
Security & Vulnerability Remediation (Must-Have)

Own vulnerability remediation workflows across OS, middleware, images, and dependencies:
scanning triage patch/upgrade validation reporting
Support hardening standards (baseline configs, least privilege, secrets handling, access controls) and help close audit findings.
CI/CD & Release Enablement

Implement and support CI/CD automation (e.g., Jenkins, Spinnaker, Cloud Deployment ) to improve release reliability.
Enable safe release patterns (blue/green, canary, automated rollback), and enforce quality/security gates (e.g., SonarQube, scanning steps).
Observability & Monitoring

Build and maintain monitoring/alerting and dashboards using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Dynatrace, Splunk, and cloud-native monitoring where relevant.
Improve MTTR through better telemetry (metrics/logs/traces), service dashboards, and well-defined escalation paths.
Reliability Engineering (SRE)

Define and drive reliability outcomes (availability, latency, resilience, recoverability) using SLIs/SLOs where applicable.
Reduce alert fatigue by tuning alerts, improving signal-to-noise, and maintaining actionable runbooks.

Required Qualifications

Strong experience in SRE / DevOps / Infrastructure Engineering / Production Operations.
Proven hands-on automation with Terraform and Ansible in real production environments.
Strong administration and troubleshooting across Windows and Unix/Linux.
Experience supporting enterprise infrastructure areas (compute, network, storage, load balancing, security controls).
Practical incident management experience (on-call, RCA/postmortems, operational improvements).
Demonstrated experience with vulnerability remediation (not just monitoring actual patching and verification).
