Technical Competencies

• Design, architect, and operate enterprise‑scale Red Hat OpenShift (v4.x) platforms across on‑prem, private cloud, and managed OpenShift services (ARO, ROSA) for regulated banking workloads.
• Define hybrid and multi‑cloud OpenShift architecture, integrating on‑prem OpenShift with cloud‑hosted clusters while maintaining security, compliance, and operational consistency.
• Architect OpenShift solutions leveraging Azure Red Hat OpenShift (ARO) and Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA), including network connectivity, identity integration, and landing zone alignment.
• Build, configure, and maintain OpenShift cluster infrastructure across bare‑metal, virtualized, and cloud environments, including networking, storage, ingress, and security integration.
• Own the end‑to‑end lifecycle of OpenShift platforms: installation, upgrades, patching, capacity planning, scaling, and platform health management.
• Act as a solution architect and technical advisor for container platforms, guiding application modernization and cloud‑native adoption strategies.
• Design hybrid connectivity models between on‑prem and cloud OpenShift clusters using VPN, private connectivity (e.g., ExpressRoute / Direct Connect–aligned designs), and secure ingress/egress patterns.
• Develop technical architectures, solution blueprints, and design documents for OpenShift‑based platforms and cloud‑integrated solutions.
• Prepare and deliver technical proposals, architecture presentations, and platform roadmaps to architecture review boards, leadership, and key stakeholders.
• Implement and manage OpenShift ecosystem components, including Operators, OperatorHub, OpenShift Pipelines (Tekton), GitOps (Argo CD), and Service Mesh (Istio).
• Drive platform automation and standardization using Ansible, Terraform (where applicable), Bash, and Python across on‑prem and cloud OpenShift environments.
• Enable and support CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows for cloud and hybrid OpenShift clusters, ensuring controlled and compliant deployments.
• Integrate OpenShift with cloud‑native services and enterprise tooling, including identity providers, container registries, monitoring, logging, and certificate management.
• Ensure security, risk, and compliance alignment across hybrid and cloud platforms, enforcing RBAC, network policies, cluster hardening, and banking regulatory standards.
• Integrate and manage container and cloud security tooling, including image scanning, vulnerability management, and policy enforcement (e.g., ACS, Trivy).
• Monitor and troubleshoot performance, availability, and reliability issues across on‑prem and cloud OpenShift clusters, providing root cause analysis and remediation.
• Design and operate centralized observability solutions (Prometheus, Grafana, EFK/ELK) for hybrid OpenShift environments.
• Plan and execute capacity and scaling strategies for OpenShift clusters across cloud and on‑prem platforms based on business demand and SLAs.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to OpenShift and platform engineers, promoting cloud and hybrid platform best practices.
• Lead or support small platform engineering teams, including task planning, technical reviews, and skill development.
• Collaborate with cloud, infrastructure, security, networking, SRE, and application teams to deliver secure, stable, and compliant OpenShift platforms.
• Provide 24/7 production support and incident leadership, ensuring fast recovery and minimal impact to critical banking services.
• Contribute to platform governance, standards definition, and continuous improvement of enterprise container and hybrid cloud platforms
