During on-call periods, you will be expected to respond to production incidents within defined response time objectives, troubleshoot issues, and work collaboratively to restore service as quickly as possible.

Flexibility to collaborate with globally distributed teams, including occasional overlap with US business hours, is expected to support production operations and major releases.
