Senior Platform Engineer

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Platform Engineer to lead the design, build, and maintenance of our next-generation, cloud-native infrastructure in Kolkata.

This role requires a hybrid of traditional DevOps engineering and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles, focusing on ensuring our systems are highly available, scalable, observable, and secure. A passion for automation and deep expertise in Kubernetes and public cloud infrastructure are essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Architect and implement scalable infrastructure solutions on leading public clouds (AWS, GCP, or Azure) using Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
• Manage, optimize, and secure large-scale Kubernetes clusters (EKS, GKE, or AKS), incorporating service mesh technologies (Istio/Linkerd) and GitOps practices (ArgoCD/Flux).
• Apply SRE principles to define and achieve Service Level Objectives (SLOs), implementing robust monitoring, alerting (Prometheus/Grafana/Datadog), and logging solutions (ELK/Loki/Splunk).
• Develop and maintain automation scripts using Python, Go, or Bash to streamline deployment, scaling, and operational tasks.
• Implement and enforce security best practices, including cluster hardening, secrets management (Vault), and ensuring compliance with relevant standards.

Required Skills:

• Expertise with a major cloud provider, with AWS being preferred.
• In-depth knowledge of Kubernetes and container orchestration.
• Proficiency with Terraform for infrastructure provisioning.
• Strong understanding of networking, load balancing, and microservices architecture.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitLab CI, Jenkins, or GitHub Actions.
