• Strong skills in developing back-end solutions, particularly for data processing, data storage (transitional load), and interfacing with legacy systems like Mainframe DB2.
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools.
• Knowledge of implementing security controls like IAM, encryption, and audit logging.
• Experience with observability tools for logging, monitoring, and alerting.

• Provision AWS infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools and ensure it meets security and compliance standards.
• Implement robust security controls, including IAM, encryption, audit logging, and compliance configurations.
• Set up observability tools like centralized logging, monitoring, and alerting.
• Build CI/CD pipelines for automated deployment and rollback.
• Develop and execute a phased migration plan to minimize disruption.
• Build and validate a reconciliation system to ensure data integrity between the legacy platform and the new system.
• Decommission legacy files after a successful 60-day parallel processing period.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to define the target AWS architecture and ensure alignment with enterprise security and data governance standards.
• Develop operational documentation, including architecture diagrams, runbooks, and SOPs.
