Engineer, deploy, and maintain infrastructure across cloud and on-prem environments including servers, VMs, and Kubernetes (k8s). Support on-prem compute and virtualization platforms and enable scalable environments for development, test, and production workloads. Own and improve CI/CD pipelines and automation for build, deployment, configuration, and environment provisioning (infrastructure-as-code where applicable). Perform and/or coordinate OS lifecycle management, including OS patching, patch validation, and operational change planning. Provide operational support for services and platforms, including monitoring/logging, incident response, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvements to reliability and security. Develop and maintain documentation (architecture, runbooks, deployment procedures, troubleshooting guides).
