  • Handle operational requests from internal teams;
  • Maintain and improve monitoring, alerting, dashboards, logs, and metrics;
  • Support CI/CD pipelines, production releases, and GitOps workflows;
  • Contribute to automation initiatives to reduce operational overhead;
  • Maintain and improve Kubernetes-based infrastructure and containerized workloads;
  • Support Infrastructure as Code practices and environment improvements.

  • Experience with AWS supporting production environments;
  • Experience supporting production SaaS applications;
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI);
