This role blends hands-on keyboard engineering with documentation and baseline control. You will leverage industry best practices to deploy, implement, and modernize IaC solutions, while leading the integration of container development and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes/Docker). Your work will optimize build and test pipelines for performance and scalability across on-premise, virtualized, and cloud-based computing environments.
