  • Alibaba Cloud & AWS multi-cloud operations (core responsibility): Operate, govern, and optimize Alibaba Cloud and AWS resources across dual-cloud environments, covering container services, networking, storage, IAM, load balancing, databases, and object storage; manage configuration changes, cost optimization, and disaster recovery to achieve unified multi-cloud governance.

  • Stability and security: Build comprehensive K8s cluster monitoring, alerting, logging, and distributed tracing systems; define operations runbooks, change processes, and incident response plans; strengthen cluster security controls, disable high-risk permissions, harden container runtime environments, and ensure infrastructure and business data security.
  • Automated operations and DevOps: Develop operations automation scripts using Shell/Python; integrate Jenkins, GitLab CI, and ArgoCD to build automated release, inspection, and backup systems; implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles to improve efficiency and reduce human error.
  • Incident management and post-mortem optimization: Lead online incident response, conduct root cause analysis, produce post-mortem reports, and continuously optimize cluster architecture, resource allocation, monitoring strategy, and long-term stability assurance mechanisms.
  • Technical knowledge sharing and team empowerment: Track Cloud Native and public cloud technology developments; document operations best practices and technical specifications; assist the team in improving multi-cloud K8s operations capabilities.
