Responsibilities

• Steward core platform services: Implement container orchestration, service mesh, ingress, and secrets management at scale.
• Cross-functional partnership: Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Data, and Security to deliver external and internal value.

• Automate everything: Use infrastructure-as-code and configuration management to make systems and processes repeatable, auditable, and secure.
• Scale cost-effectively: Optimize cluster utilization, autoscaling, and storage/networking to balance performance, reliability, and spend.
• Level-up developer experience: Build internal tooling, templates, and golden paths that reduce cognitive load and time-to-first-deploy for product teams.
• On-call & incident response: Participate in a sustainable on-call rotation, drive post-mortems, eliminate toil, and reduce MTTR via automation.
• Enable fast, safe delivery: Evolve CI/CD pipelines (build/test/release), and environment strategies (dev/stage/prod).
• AI: Build using agentic tools (Claude Code, Codex, etc) and push the boundaries of agentic development.
