- Oversee AEM infrastructure, including server configuration, instance management, capacity planning, load balancing, and performance optimisation across environments.
- Develop and manage tools for automating operational processes, continuous monitoring, logging, and alerting to ensure high availability and rapid issue detection.
- Actively monitor environment and platform events, swiftly identifying and reporting security incidents or anomalies to protect system security and integrity.
- Troubleshoot system issues across various domains and platforms, collaborating closely with AEM developers to refine deployment strategies and resolve technical challenges.
- Provide architectural and process improvement recommendations to enhance the robustness, scalability, and security of AEM setups and development pipelines.
- Manage and optimise cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Azure) to support resilient, scalable AEM instances.
- Continuously enhance and optimise processes, tools, and technologies to improve efficiency, reliability, and performance metrics, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality software.
- Stay updated on best practices for AEM administration, deployment strategies, and DevSecOps techniques to continually improve system resilience and security.
Required Skills & Experience:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- At least 3+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, specifically with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) or cloud-based infrastructure, in a senior or lead role.
- Proficiency in managing and configuring AEM environments, including deployment topologies (e.g., Author, Publish, Dispatcher), and expertise in CI/CD tools like GitLab, Jenkins, TeamCity, Octopus Deploy, Bamboo, or CircleCI.
- Strong knowledge of infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or Pulumi, with a focus on continuous deployment pipelines.
- Expertise in scripting languages such as Bash, Perl, or Python, and in using configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible, Puppet).
- In-depth knowledge of application security best practices, including implementing automated security testing tools and addressing common vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle.
- Advanced experience in cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP, including foundational knowledge in compute, networking, storage, and security.
- Strong experience with containerisation and orchestration tools such as Docker and Kubernetes, with a focus on scaling and performance tuning.
- Proficiency in creating and managing operational dashboards across all systems to monitor and detect downtimes, spikes, and anomalies.
- Experience in managing Salesforce releases using tools like Gearset, Prodly, Copado, or similar for other BT applications such as NetSuite and Workday is a plus.
- Excellent troubleshooting skills, especially in performance tuning and scalability, and strong documentation skills.
- Familiarity with web application security best practices for securing AEM environments and cloud-based applications. Certification such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer or similar is a plus.
