Description
### **Key Responsabilities**
* **Architectural Strategy:** Define and steer medium and long\-term architectural strategies for the platform, ensuring efficiency, scalability, and reliability across all AWS environments.
* **Platform as a Product:** Codify architecture into practice by delivering reference implementations and Golden Path templates for high\-performance builds and standardized scaffolding.
* **GitOps \& Continuous Delivery:** Engineer safe delivery and reusable GitHub Actions. Institutionalize GitOps using ArgoCD/Flux and Flagger for progressive rollouts (canary/blue\-green) with automated, SLO\-gated rollbacks.
* **Cloud\-Native Orchestration:** Manage and optimize Kubernetes operations using Karpenter for intelligent node provisioning, as well as HPA and KEDA for event\-driven autoscaling.
* **Observability \& SRE:** Make observability the default through OpenTelemetry and New Relic. Define SLIs/SLOs, establish error\-budget policies, and automate tracking of post\-incident actions.
* **Security \& Service Mesh:** Raise cloud and service security, operate and propose improvements related to OAuth2/JWT and secrets lifecycle management (Secrets Manager/KMS). Implement Policy\-as\-Code adoption across CI/CD and Kubernetes admission controllers.
* **Event\-Driven Excellence:** Design and operate event topologies covering Kafka partitioning, compaction, retention policies, and schema evolution, including performance and reliability.
* **AI\-Assisted Engineering:** Promote the adoption of AI\-assisted practices to enhance code quality, automated refactoring, automated operations, and technical documentation.
* **FinOps \& Efficiency:** Drive cost\-aware architecture through cloud computing best practices, scalability, and platform/service efficiency, not merely focusing on savings plans or reservations.
* **Technical Governance:** Implement governance and controls that ensure the correct management of services, security, and compliance of our platforms and technologies, contributing to a culture of excellence.
