- Utilize configuration management tools such as Ansible and Salt to ensure consistent, secure system provisioning.
- Deploy and manage containerized applications using Podman or Docker, orchestrated through Kubernetes environments.
- Implement and maintain monitoring and logging solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, and the ELK stack to ensure system reliability and performance.
- Integrate automated testing and static analysis tools including VectorCast, Coverity, and linters into development workflows.
- Enforce secure coding standards such as MISRA within build pipelines and conduct regular audits using tools like Blackduck, Snyk, and SonarQube.
- Lead initiatives to modernize legacy systems, migrate to cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and improve overall DevOps maturity.
- Collaborate closely with development teams to streamline deployment processes and troubleshoot infrastructure issues.
