About the Role

We are looking for a skilled and motivated

In this role, you will be responsible for orchestrating Kubernetes environments (Amazon EKS), managing container lifecycles, and integrating these solutions into CI/CD pipelines. You will collaborate with clients to modernize applications, implement best practices for container adoption, and ensure performance, security, and cost-efficiency across container workloads. This role requires deep technical expertise in AWS container services and a proactive mindset to drive innovation in cloud-native environments.

• Integrate container solutions into Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines using AWS services (CodePipeline, CodeBuild, etc.) and/or third-party tools.
• Implement and manage monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions for container applications and clusters (e.g., CloudWatch Container Insights, Prometheus, Grafana, Fluentd/Fluent Bit).
• Optimize performance, cost, and security of containerized workloads on AWS.
• Advise clients on best practices for container adoption, migrating existing applications to containers (refactoring, replatforming), and modernizing applications.
• Implement advanced networking strategies for containers, including service mesh (e.g., AWS App Mesh, Istio).
• Troubleshoot complex issues across distributed container environments, from infrastructure to application layers.
• Stay up to date with the latest trends, AWS services, and tools in the container and Kubernetes ecosystem.
