- Optimize observability platforms, telemetry, and distributed tracing to surface actionable alerts without noise
- Write robust software to automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and deployment pipelines.
- Spearhead capacity planning, performance tuning, and chaos engineering experiments.
- Build internal developer tooling that accelerates time-to-market while strictly controlling operational risk
- Mentor and develop SRE staff through continuous technical training and career pathing.
- Foster an inclusive, growth-oriented engineering culture.
- Collaborate with executive leadership, security, and dev teams to align technical scaling with overarching business goals
- Partner with Product, Security, and Core Engineering teams to align operational goals.
- Exceptional incident command, stakeholder management and communication skills.
