• Configure and manage event-driven and messaging services including SQS, SNS, and EventBridge.
• Manage AWS IAM roles and permissions, Secrets Manager, encryption, and other cloud security controls.
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and support automated application and infrastructure deployments.
• Monitor system and application health using Amazon CloudWatch, responding to alerts and operational issues.
• Troubleshoot performance, availability, connectivity, and production issues across AWS environments.
• Support system upgrades, patches, maintenance activities, and operational improvements.
• Ensure AWS environments comply with GCC security, logging, monitoring, and vulnerability-management requirements.
• Work closely with development, application, security, and operations teams to ensure reliable and secure cloud operations.
