Implement and maintain cloud security controls using AWS services such as IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager, CloudTrail, AWS Config, GuardDuty, and Security Hub.

Provision, configure, and manage AWS resources, including EC2 instances, RDS databases such as Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL, Application Load Balancers (ALB), AWS Certificate Manager (ACM), Route 53, and AWS WAF.

Administer Windows Server environments, including Active Directory, IIS configuration, licensing, PowerShell scripting, and basic operating system hardening.

Install, configure, and troubleshoot third-party Windows-based applications, resolving service availability, connectivity, and runtime issues.

Support .NET and Python runtime environments on Windows and ensure compatibility, reliability, and operational stability.

Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure automation using Terraform and other relevant tools.

Configure and manage monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability solutions using AWS CloudWatch, Datadog, Grafana, or similar platforms.

Contribute to cloud infrastructure optimization, troubleshooting, incident resolution, and operational improvements across production environments.

Apply DevOps best practices to improve deployment reliability, infrastructure scalability, security, and operational efficiency.

Collaborate with distributed teams in an Agile, iterative delivery environment, coordinating implementation activities and communicating technical progress.

Maintain comprehensive technical documentation and conduct clear knowledge-transfer sessions and handoffs to support long-term maintainability.

Contribute to infrastructure and DevOps initiatives across multiple clients or business units, balancing architectural decisions with hands-on implementation.
