• Design and build the infrastructure for a new R&D project on AWS (EKS, VPC, IAM, managed services) — fully as code.
• Set up CI/CD pipelines with automated testing, deployments and rollback.
• Implement GitOps-based delivery (ArgoCD / Flux).
• Integrate the project into our observability stack: metrics, logs, tracing and meaningful alerting.
• Own security and access management for the project: secrets management, least-privilege IAM, image and dependency scanning.
• Keep infrastructure costs predictable — cost visibility, autoscaling, spot usage, shutdown of idle environments.
• Document what you build and hand over a setup the rest of the team can support.
• Work closely with developers on architecture decisions as the project evolves.

• Write Bash and Python (or Go) for automation.
• Troubleshoot Linux and networking issues confidently: DNS, TLS, routing, container runtime.
