  • Execute manual maintenance tasks across test, staging, and production environments
  • Assist with importing sanitized production database dumps into staging environments
  • Monitor platform health and performance using APM monitoring tools such as Datadog, New Relic, or Blackfire
  • Participate in quality assurance and user acceptance testing (UAT) for production releases
  • Support application deployments and infrastructure updates
  • Respond to and troubleshoot critical production issues
  • Contribute to documentation of systems, workflows, and operational processes
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to improve platform reliability and performance
  • Ensure high availability and uptime of the production storefront
  • Occasional after‑hours support may be required to maintain the reliability of production systems

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of Magento 2 development experience, preferably within high‑traffic eCommerce environments
  • Experience maintaining the availability and uptime of enterprise storefront applications
  • Strong proficiency with PHP and Magento architecture
  • 3+ years of AWS experience, particularly with services such as S3, IAM, EC2, and CodePipeline
  • 5+ years of Linux experience, including strong scripting capabilities
  • 2+ years of system administration experience supporting web applications built on Linux, Apache or NGINX, MySQL, and PHP
  • Experience with Git version control and collaborative development workflows
