Role: Automation Architect
Experience: 5 8 Years
Location: [Onsite]
Role Overview:
We are seeking a skilled Automation Architect to lead automation initiatives within our Infra Automation team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience developing robust automation frameworks using Python and Bash, deep familiarity with cloud platforms (preferably AWS), and a solid understanding of SDLC, Agile methodologies, and Git-based workflows.
This role demands a mix of technical leadership, hands-on scripting, and architecture thinking to guide automation development and ensure best practices across infrastructure and platform engineering efforts.
Key Responsibilities:
- Architect and implement automation solutions for infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and operational tasks using Python, Bash, and cloud-native services.
- Design and maintain reusable automation modules in line with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (DevOps, developers, testers) to integrate automation into every stage of the SDLC.
- Lead and guide the development of automation scripts and workflows that align with Agile delivery models.
- Ensure code versioning, branching, and collaboration through effective Git workflows (e.g., GitHub, GitLab).
- Enforce coding standards, modular design, and documentation for automation tools and scripts.
- Support cloud infrastructure deployment and operations using tools like AWS CLI, Terraform, and CI/CD integrations.
- Conduct code reviews, mentor team members, and champion automation best practices across teams.
Required Experience:
- 5 8 years of experience in infrastructure automation and DevOps practices.
- Strong hands-on skills in Python and Bash scripting for infrastructure and platform automation.
- Solid experience in at least one major cloud platform (AWS preferred), including command-line tools and SDKs.
- Proven experience applying Agile methodologies and working across the full SDLC.
- Familiar with Git-based development practices: branching, pull requests, version control, and code review.
- Experience with automation tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or AWS CDK is a plus.
- Strong collaboration, communication, and problem-solving skills.
