Requirements

  • 4-8 years of experience in infrastructure engineering, systems administration, cloud engineering, network engineering, platform engineering, SRE, DevOps, or security engineering roles.
  • Hands-on experience with troubleshooting, administering, and securing production technology environments.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with attention to detail and a proactive mindset.
  • Ability to work independently or as part of a team in fast-moving environments.

Responsibilities

  • Support containment, recovery, vulnerability remediation, and post-incident corrective actions.
  • Partner with product, engineering, and infrastructure teams to implement remediation plans.
  • Drive the implementation of secure configurations across various platforms.
  • Create technical documentation outlining remediation guidance and security best practices.
  • Develop or implement automation and tooling to accelerate remediation and security operations.
