Use EdgeKV for edge-side key-value data storage and low-latency decisioning.
Perform request and response manipulation, including header injection, cookie handling, rewrites, and edge-side logic execution.

Automation & Tooling

Use Akamai CLI and Property Manager API for configuration management, automation, validation, and repeatable operational workflows.
Leverage the Terraform Akamai provider to support Infrastructure as Code practices for property and platform configuration.
Use DataStream and Log Delivery Service to support delivery analytics, troubleshooting, reporting, and observability.
Integrate Akamai configuration changes with CI/CD pipelines for automated property deployments and environment promotion.
Use Akamai Control Center reporting and traffic analysis to monitor delivery health, validate changes, and identify optimization opportunities.

Support Coveo-related delivery needs where web platform integration, Search configuration, troubleshooting, or operational coordination is required.
Assist with related platform tools, documentation, release validation, vendor coordination, and production support activities as assigned.

Required Qualifications

7+ years of web platform, CDN, infrastructure, site reliability, or edge delivery engineering experience.
Deep understanding of HTTP, DNS, TLS, caching, routing, redirects, headers, CDN behavior, origin architecture, and browser/network fundamentals.
Hands-on senior-level experience with Akamai configuration, delivery optimization, troubleshooting, and production support.
Experience with Akamai tools such as Property Manager, Edge Redirector, Edge DNS, certificates, cache purge, reporting, and diagnostic utilities.
Working knowledge of web application architectures, APIs, JavaScript-based applications, and enterprise content or commerce platforms.
