    • Containerization and Orchestration: Implement containerization technologies such as Docker and container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes to deploy and manage containerized applications in the cloud, ensuring scalability, reliability, and performance.
    • Security and Compliance: Implement security best practices and compliance controls to protect cloud infrastructure and data assets, including network security, identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and logging and monitoring.
    • Performance Optimization: Monitor and optimize cloud infrastructure performance, resource utilization, and cost efficiency, leveraging cloud monitoring and optimization tools to identify and address performance bottlenecks and cost inefficiencies.
    • Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD): Implement CI/CD pipelines and automation workflows to enable automated build, test, and deployment processes for cloud-based applications, ensuring rapid and reliable software delivery.
    • Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including software developers, DevOps engineers, and IT operations, to design and implement cloud solutions that meet business requirements and operational needs. Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and team members.

    Qualifications:
