This role is for one of Weekday’s clients Salary range: Rs 2000000 - Rs 2500000 (ie INR 20 - 25 LPA)

Min Experience: 6+ years Location: Mumbai, Maharashtra, India JobType: full-time

We are seeking a highly motivated and strategic-minded Cloud Engineer to join our dynamic team. You will lead our reliability strategy, build self-healing architecture, eliminate operational toil through software engineering, and mentor a high-performing team of SRE and Devops engineers.

Responsibilities:

Architecture & Reliability Ownership: Design multi-AZ and multi-region AWS architectures for zero-downtime releases. Establish and enforce SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets alongside product managers.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Standardize scalable cloud infrastructure using Terraform or AWS CDK. Ensure state isolation, modularity, and automated deployment pipelines.

Observability & Monitoring: Drive signal-to-noise alerting and build observability pipelines using Prometheus/Grafana, APM, AWS CloudWatch, or OpenTelemetry.

Incident Leadership & Postmortems: Serve as Incident Commander for high-severity issues. Lead blameless post-mortems and convert system failures into concrete engineering work.

Automation & Platform Tooling: Treat operations as a software problem by writing custom tooling in Bash or Python to eliminate manual operational toil.

Developer Experience & CI/CD: Maintain robust CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Tekton ArgoCD) to empower product developers with safe self-service deployments.

FinOps & Security: Partner with finance and security to optimize AWS spending (Savings Plans, right-sizing) while ensuring IAM policies, KMS encryption, and VPC configurations meet compliance standards.

Mentorship & On-Call Management: Set sustainable on-call rotation policies to prevent burnout and mentor junior and mid-level SREs.

 

Qualifications:

● Experience: 6+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Infrastructure.

● AWS Mastery: Deep hands-on experience across core AWS services (EKS, Lambda, RDS S3, Route 53, Transit Gateway).

● Kubernetes Expertise: Experience managing production EKS clusters, including workload scaling, ingress control, service meshes, and GitOps deployments (ArgoCD/Flux).

● Software Development: Strong coding skills in Bash or Python to build CLI tools, custom controllers, and API integrations.

● IaC Proficiency: Proven production usage of Terraform or AWS CDK.

● Observability: Track record of building metrics, logs, and trace pipelines from the ground up using modern observability stacks.

● Relevant certifications (e.g.,AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, Certified Kubernetes Administrator) are a plus.
