About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer who will work with our client’s Enterprise Security team. You’ll bring deep expertise in Ansible-driven automation of Windows, Active Directory, and LDAP environments, complemented by strong Kubernetes-on-AWS skills — while extending your impact across CI/CD, messaging, databases, and broader cloud infrastructure supporting enterprise-scale security operations.
What You’ll Do
- Automate AD/Windows administration via Ansible (user/group lifecycle, GPOs, hardening)
- Manage and tune LDAP directories; support SSO and AuthN/AuthZ integrations
- Deploy and manage Kubernetes/EKS clusters and core AWS infrastructure (EC2, S3, VPC)
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Git)
- Support event-driven architectures using AWS SNS/SQS
- Manage database operations (backup, scaling, patching, security) across RDS, DynamoDB, and Graph DB (e.g., Neo4j)
- Implement monitoring and alerting (CloudWatch, Splunk) and support compliance/audit requirements
- Drive root cause analysis, automation improvements, and cost optimization
- Partner cross-functionally with security, infrastructure, and application teams to deliver secure, identity-first solutions at scale
What You’ll Bring (Must-Have)
- Ansible – Windows/AD/LDAP automation
- Active Directory & LDAP – administration and troubleshooting
- Kubernetes on AWS (EKS) – deployment, scaling, cluster management
- Scripting: Python, PowerShell, YAML
- Messaging: AWS SNS/SQS
- Databases: RDS, DynamoDB, Graph DB (e.g., Neo4j)
Nice to Have
- Ping Directory experience
- Java, or backend/full-stack development experience
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field
- 6–8+ years of DevOps experience, with hands-on Ansible+AD/LDAP and Kubernetes-on-AWS skills (both mandatory)
- AWS Certification (DevOps Engineer or Solutions Architect) preferred
- Agile/Scrum exposure
- Strong analytical and investigative mindset
- Ability to convert technical findings into executive-friendly insights
- Excellent communication skills — interpersonal, oral, written, and documentation — with strong customer-facing presence for stakeholder presentations and discussions
