[URGENT] - Cloud DevOps Engineer (WFH)

A candidate with hands-on DevOps experience, particularly in Cloud Engineering using AWS and/or Azure, managing Git pipelines and CI/CD processes, and working with SQL and scripting to support automation and system operations.

• AWS

• Infrastructure as Code

• Programming

• CI/CD

• EC2 & Linux

• Docker

• RDS + SQL (bonus)

Help on some self-contained or maintenance tasks primarily the following:

• Container & image hygiene: Migrate all consumers of the serverless image to the CI image with regular patching (currently WIP, needs expanding); update all CloudEng tools Docker images and verify no breakage across dependent repos.

• Database (RDS): Upgrade all instances to the latest major version; RDS schema consolidation (excluding cases only required for MVNE); potentially start with standalone non-cluster instances first, then re-evaluate.

• Serverless: Lambda upgrades across all CloudEng repos first, then assess whether scope can extend further.

• Repo & CI/CD modernisation: Migrate CloudEng repos to GitHub Actions; migrate CloudEng repos to CDK; GitHub hardening (e.g. CODEOWNERS).

• Observability: Identify and create any alerts not yet in place.

• Governance & cost: Drive the AWS tagging initiative (bulk tagging, etc.); cost-related optimisation tasks.

• Security follow-through: Follow up with repo owners to close out secure-code issues.

• BAU intake: Pick up requests in the CloudEng public channel, starting with simpler tasks.
