Deploy, manage, and monitor AWS cloud infrastructure to support business operations. (E.g., provisioning EC2 instances, configuring VPCs, and setting up S3 storage solutions.)
-
Install and manage Linux and Windows servers on AWS and other cloud environments. (E.g., setting up Amazon EC2 instances with appropriate security groups.)
-
Troubleshoot systems and network devices to ensure smooth IT operations. (E.g., diagnosing connectivity issues between AWS resources.)
-
Maintain an asset inventory of all hardware, software, and cloud resources. (E.g., tracking AWS resource usage to optimize costs.)

Collaborate with DevOps, IT support, and application development teams to optimize cloud performance. (E.g., working with developers to integrate CI/CD pipelines using AWS CodePipeline.)
-
Ensure high availability, disaster recovery, and failover strategies for cloud applications. (E.g., setting up multi-AZ deployments for RDS and configuring Route 53 failover policies.)
