• Assess and modernize monolithic apps for containerization, microservices, or replatforming with minimal downtime.
• Design, deploy and manage scalable, multi cluster OpenShift architectures across on prem and public clouds.
• Implement automation for migrations and operations using Ansible, Terraform, Helm, and GitOps (ArgoCD/FluxCD).
• Define resource quotas, autoscaling, and performance tuning for production workloads.
• Enforce security and compliance: RBAC, network/pod policies, image scanning, and CIS/NIST alignment.
• Build observability and CI/CD: Prometheus/Grafana, centralized logging (ELK/Loki), Jenkins/GitLab CI, ArgoCD.
