Support CI/CD pipelines for Eagle configurations using GitLab, Jenkins, and Nexus.
Collaborate with cloud teams to deploy Eagle workloads on AWS or Azure environments (ECS, RDS, EC2, AKS).
Implement security standards (OAuth2.0, SAML, JWT) and compliance controls (SOC2, ISO27001).
Conduct performance benchmarking, load testing, and failover simulation exercises.
Stakeholder Management:
Partner with business analysts, data governance, and operations teams to deliver functional and technical enhancements.
Provide technical mentoring and code reviews for Eagle development teams.
Prepare high-level design documents, architecture blueprints, and knowledge transfer artifacts.
