- Drive cost optimization (FinOps) through right-sizing and architectural improvements.
- Embed security-by-design principles across cloud architecture and pipelines.
- Implement IAM, network security, encryption, and secrets management aligned with AWS best practices.
- Contribute to cloud governance, policies, and standards.
- Design and operate container platforms using ECS, EKS, or Kubernetes.
- Build and manage container image pipelines and registry systems.
- Implement runtime security and scaling strategies.
- Partner with engineering, QA, security, and business teams to align solutions with goals.
