Manage and optimize cloud environments (primarily AWS).
Implement and manage containerization and orchestration platforms (Docker, Kubernetes).
Maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for scalability, consistency, and efficiency.
Set up and manage logging, monitoring, and alerting systems (e.g., ELK, Prometheus, Grafana).
