Responsibilities
- Design and implement Terraform modules, cloud landing zones, provisioning workflows, and multi-region or dedicated-instance architectures across Azure, GCP, and AWS.
- Build and maintain production Kubernetes foundations, including clusters, networking, autoscaling, storage, workload identity, upgrades, and recovery.
- Develop GitOps delivery platforms with automated validation, promotion, rollback, and drift detection.
- Own platform services including service mesh, identity, certificate management, API gateways, ingress and egress, DNS, secrets, and cloud-native networking.
- Engineer secure networking, zero-trust and least-privilege controls, firewall and WAF policies, VPN or private interconnects, TLS/mTLS, segmentation, and load balancing.
- Implement technical safeguards, monitoring, vulnerability response, environment separation, and evidence capture for regulated environments.
- Engineer observability using metrics, logs, alerting, dashboards, telemetry pipelines, capacity signals, and incident diagnostics.
- Deploy, scale, secure, and troubleshoot Kafka, Redis, relational databases, document databases, and gateway services.
- Develop platform tooling and self-service capabilities in Python, Go, or Bash to eliminate operational toil.
- Build and integrate agentic platform-development workflows for infrastructure authoring, architecture analysis, code review, test generation, plan validation, safe changes, and release readiness.
- Independently own significant subsystems and implementations, drive work to production, and improve platform reliability, security, deployment safety, and operational diagnostics.
Requirements
- At least 8 years of experience in software, cloud, DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering with substantial hands-on design and implementation.
- Bachelor degree or equivalent experience; an advanced degree is preferred.
- Advanced Terraform and Kubernetes skills with production experience using Argo CD, GitOps, Helm, and CI/CD.
- Deep experience with Azure plus GCP or AWS and the ability to transfer architecture patterns across cloud providers.
- Strong Linux, networking, DNS, TLS, PKI, routing, firewall, IAM/RBAC, and distributed-system troubleshooting experience.
- Hands-on experience with platform components such as Istio, Keycloak, cert-manager, API gateways, and secrets management.
- Experience deploying, scaling, hardening, and troubleshooting Kafka, Redis, relational databases, and document databases in Kubernetes or managed cloud services.
- Hands-on experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Thanos, Grafana Alloy, or equivalent observability pipelines.
- Experience implementing security controls in regulated environments such as FedRAMP, PCI DSS, or SOC 2 programs.
- Coding ability in Python, Go, or equivalent, with evidence of shipping automation and reusable engineering components.
- Ability to reason across application, cluster, identity, certificate, network, and cloud dependencies.
- Demonstrated ownership in fast-paced environments, including independently driving work to production while balancing speed, security, and reliability.
- Preferred experience includes multi-tenant or customer-dedicated SaaS, hybrid or air-gapped architectures, Kubernetes operators and CRDs, cloud cost management, compliance-as-code, automated audit evidence, policy engines, vulnerability scanning, supply-chain security, and agentic infrastructure-development workflows.
- Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States without the need for visa sponsorship now or in the future.
Benefits
- The role offers a fast-paced, startup-like engineering environment with rapid delivery, high ownership, hands-on problem solving, and disciplined production quality.
- Avaya supports employee growth and values contributions within a collaborative community.
