• Create actionable dashboards, alerts, health checks and deployment-quality gates.

• Participate in incident response, root-cause analysis, problem management and post-incident corrective actions.

• Track reliability indicators and continuously improve availability, performance, deployment recovery and operational resilience.

6. Database & Application Delivery

• Automate SQL/database deployment and migration workflows using SQL projects/DACPAC, Liquibase, Flyway or equivalent tools.

• Support .NET/C# and React application build, packaging, configuration and environment promotion.

• Manage artifacts and versioning through Azure Artifacts, Git Hub Packages or equivalent repository solutions.

7. Engineering Excellence & AI-Assisted Productivity

• Promote reusable Dev Ops standards, templates, documentation and developer self-service practices.

• Evaluate and responsibly use AI-assisted engineering/Dev Ops tools for pipeline authoring, troubleshooting, documentation and automation, with human review.

• Identify bottlenecks in software delivery and improve deployment frequency, lead time, change-failure rate and recovery time.

• Mentor developers and team members on Git workflows, CI/CD, cloud automation, secure delivery and operational practices.
