Ensure Compliance and Security Standards:
  • Integrate security best practices into automation workflows, ensuring that automated processes comply with industry standards and protect cloud environments. You’ll manage access controls and audit logs within automated processes.

  • Work with cloud architects and engineering teams to ensure that automation aligns with broader cloud infrastructure strategies. You’ll contribute to planning and improving cloud resource utilization through automation.
Maintain Comprehensive Documentation:
  • Document automation workflows, scripts, and best practices. You’ll create user guides and technical documentation to support team members and enable knowledge sharing.

  • Programming and Scripting Expertise: Proficiency in scripting like Python, PowerShell, or Go, and experience with automation tools (e.g., Ansible, Chef, Puppet).
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Experience with IaC tools like Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or Azure Resource Manager. You can create templates for automated, scalable deployments.
  • CI/CD Pipeline Knowledge: Knowledge of integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, or GitHub Actions.
