• Build and maintain critical infrastructure components that support high availability, resilience, and secure production operations.
• Develop and optimize infrastructure-as-code practices and automated deployment workflows to reduce manual work and improve consistency.
• Contribute to infrastructure strategy and technical decision-making, evaluating new tools and technologies based on business needs and technical merit.
• Work across technical and non-technical teams to align infrastructure decisions with broader organizational objectives.
• Participate in a weekly on-call rotation, acting as a key escalation point for production incidents affecting 24/7 services.
• Lead incident investigation and root cause analysis, implementing lasting corrective and preventative measures.
• Identify opportunities to improve monitoring, alerting, operational visibility, and incident response.
• Leverage AI tools to support incident triage, infrastructure-as-code generation, runbook development, and other engineering workflows.
• Promote secure-by-design infrastructure practices and contribute to compliance readiness and ongoing security improvements.
