This role focuses on running and improving cloud-based services that handle billions of requests per year, supporting ongoing cloud migrations, and ensuring uptime, performance, and cost efficiency.

  • Experience supporting hybrid environments (AWS + on-prem VMs, Oracle on-prem)

Nice to Have Experience:

  • DevSecOps experience, especially related to cloud migration and promotion
  • CloudFoundry exposure
  • Java-based backend services (engineering support level, not pure app dev)
