- Improve service KPIs, SLOs, dashboards, alerting, deployment validation, and operational procedures.
- Build automation and tooling to reduce recurring operational toil and improve production safety.
- Partner with development and infrastructure teams on service architecture, deployment, configuration, and reliability improvements.
- Use observability, telemetry, event correlation, and AIOps capabilities to improve detection, diagnosis, and incident response.
- Support major upgrades, migrations, patching, capacity planning, performance tuning, security vulnerability management and production rollouts.
- Troubleshoot complex distributed-system issues by analyzing service topology, dependencies, configuration, and failure modes.
- Contribute to incident-management practices, operational readiness, and service ownership improvements.
- Mentor team members and act as a technical resource for partner teams.
- Participate in a 12x7 on-call rotation and lead response during customer-impacting incidents.
