Leadership / Team Lead Expectations
- Provide technical leadership: guide 2-4 engineers (DevOps / automation), assign work, review changes, and ensure deliverables meet quality and timelines.
- Drive operational best practices: documentation, tracking via JIRA, transparent status reporting, and continuous improvement.
- Mentor junior engineers and help build depth in deployment automation, troubleshooting, and operational ownership.
Basic Qualifications:
- 6-8 years in DevOps / SRE / Cloud Operations / Release Engineering.
- Strong hands-on experience with AWS (EC2) and cloud-based application deployments.
- Experience owning CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and environment stability
- Strong troubleshooting skills: logs, root-cause analysis, incident handling, and post-deployment validations.
- Experience with JIRA-based execution and tracking (work items referenced extensively in sprint decks).
- Proven ability to work cross-functionally with Dev, QA, and CloudOps teams.
- Experience with Kubernetes, Jenkins, GitOps, terraform and modern CI/CD practices
