• Cost monitoring and optimisation of resources

• Make clean documentation/architecture diagrams

• Proven experience managing Node.js services in production, with skills in containerization, Docker image optimisation, and diagnosing performance and memory bottlenecks.

• Disaster recovery: backup strategies, restore drills, recovery

Requirements

• At least 5 years of experience in architecture, infrastructure, DevOps and/or Azure

• Experience with Terraform and/or Bicep for the rollout of cloud infrastructure (AWS experience is a plus)
