DevOps Engineer - AWS IRC302021

Description

US-based embedded payments provider delivering payment infrastructure, gateway services and developer APIs to software platforms and merchants. GlobalLogic runs a multi-stream delivery organisation spanning product engineering, mobile, data platform and QA transformation.

You will own the AWS infrastructure and delivery pipelines that keep a PCI-regulated, high-availability payments platform running.

Requirements

Must have

• AWS depth: VPC and networking, EC2, ECS/EKS, Lambda, S3, RDS/Aurora, IAM, CloudFront, Route 53, KMS, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch.
• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform (preferred) or CloudFormation, with modular, reviewed, version-controlled patterns.
• CI/CD: hands‑on ownership of pipelines in Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins - including quality gates and automated deployment.
• Containers and orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes (EKS) or ECS in production.
• Scripting: Python, Bash or PowerShell for automation and tooling.
• Monitoring and observability: Datadog, New Relic, Prometheus/Grafana, ELK or CloudWatch - including dashboard and alert design, not just consumption.
• Linux administration and solid networking fundamentals (DNS, TLS, load balancing, firewalls).
• Git‑based workflows, branching strategy, code review discipline.
• Clear written and spoken English; able to work directly with US‑based client stakeholders.

Good to have

• Prior experience in payments, banking or another regulated environment.
• Working knowledge of PCI‑DSS, SOC 2 or ISO 27001 control implementation.
• Windows/.NET workload experience on AWS (IIS, .NET application hosting).
• Database operations exposure: SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MongoDB - HA, backup, replication.
• Security tooling: SAST/DAST, container image scanning, WAF, GuardDuty, Security Hub.
• FinOps or cloud cost management ownership.
• AWS certification - Solutions Architect Associate/Professional or DevOps Engineer Professional.
• Experience with disaster recovery design and recovery testing at scale.

Job responsibilities

• Design, build and operate AWS infrastructure across multi‑account environments (dev / QA / staging / production) using Infrastructure as Code.
• Own CI/CD pipelines end to end - build, test gating, artifact management, blue/green and canary release patterns, automated rollback.
• Containerise and operate services on ECS/EKS, including scaling policies, service mesh configuration and cluster upgrades with zero customer impact.
• Implement observability that catches problems before merchants do: metrics, structured logging, distributed tracing, actionable alerting and SLO definition.
• Harden the platform for PCI‑DSS: network segmentation, secrets management, key rotation, least‑privilege IAM, encryption in transit and at rest, and audit‑ready evidence.
• Contribute to business continuity and disaster recovery - backup strategy, RTO/RPO validation, failover runbooks and periodic recovery drills.
• Drive cost optimisation (FinOps): right‑sizing, savings plans, storage lifecycle policies and per‑stream cost visibility.
• Automate away toil - no manual production changes; everything through code and pipelines.
• Participate in on‑call rotation, lead incident response, and write blameless postmortems with tracked corrective actions.
• Partner with product engineering, QA and security teams to shift reliability and compliance left into the development lifecycle.
