·       Configure and maintain both Windows and Linux operating systems in cloud and hybrid environments.


·       Ensure robust security, performance, and scalability across all deployed solutions.


·       Collaborate with clients and stakeholders to align migration plans with business outcomes and compliance standards.


·       Contribute to playbooks, automation scripts, and reusable migration templates for future scalability.

·       Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps tools (e.g., GitLab, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Terraform, CloudFormation).


·       Hands-on experience with AWS services: ECS, EKS, EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS, Control Tower.


·       Experience migrating and managing containerized applications (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, EKS).


·       Deep understanding of AWS compute, storage, networking, and security services.


·       Strong system administration knowledge of both Linux and Windows platforms.


·       Experience working in regulated and mission-critical environments.


·       Familiar with security controls, IAM, encryption, and cloud governance practices.
