Documentation and Reporting:

  • Maintain detailed documentation of deployment procedures, configuration settings, and troubleshooting steps.
  • Create deployment reports and provide regular updates on platform delivery status, including risk assessments and mitigation plans.
  • Develop and maintain knowledge base articles to aid in future deployments and team knowledge sharing.

Performance Monitoring and Optimization:

  • Monitor the performance of deployed platforms, ensuring that they meet defined SLAs and performance standards.
  • Analyze performance metrics and recommend optimizations to improve the efficiency and reliability of platform solutions.
  • Implement monitoring tools and dashboards to provide real-time visibility into platform health and delivery success.

Security and Compliance:

  • Ensure that all platform deliveries are compliant with security policies, data protection regulations, and industry standards.
  • Work with the security team to implement and maintain platform security best practices during deployment and post-deployment phases.
  • Conduct security assessments and audits as part of the deployment process.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field (or equivalent work experience).
  • 3-5 years of experience in IT platform engineering, systems administration, or a similar role.
  • Strong knowledge of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Experience with deployment automation tools and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab, Terraform).
  • Familiarity with infrastructure as code (IaC) and configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible, Puppet, Chef).
