This role is focused on optimising, automating, and scaling critical cloud infrastructure to support real-time distributed systems at high scale.

  • Automate infrastructure management using Terraform, Ansible, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices.
  • Implement monitoring, alerting, and logging solutions with Prometheus, Grafana, and Splunk.
  • Work closely with engineering teams to ensure uptime, fault tolerance, and system reliability.
Required Skills and Experience

  • Strong Linux administration experience (CentOS, Ubuntu, RHEL).
  • Proficiency in Python and Bash scripting for automation.
  • Hands-on Kubernetes experience (EKS, AKS, or GKE) in production environments.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation).
  • Familiarity with message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar).
  • Cloud experience with AWS and/or Azure, with a preference for multi-cloud exposure.
  • Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills in high-scale, high-traffic environments.
Preferred Skills
  • Experience working in a large-scale or Tier 1 technology environment.
  • Knowledge of security best practices for cloud-based infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with SaltStack for configuration management, or a strong background in Ansible/Terraform.
Why Apply
  • Work on a cutting-edge cloud infrastructure project for a globally recognised tech company.
  • Competitive contract rates of $900 - $1,000 per day (including super).
  • Hybrid work model with 2-3 days per week in the Sydney CBD office.
