  • Act as the escalation point for complex incidents, leading root-cause analysis and long-term remediation.
  • Design and implement guardrails that enable secure, reliable, and self-service cloud adoption.
  • Enable application teams to own end-to-end services while meeting platform reliability and operational standards.
  • Participate in an Agile delivery model, contributing to stories and epics, tracking work, and supporting sprint releases.
  • Partner closely with Application Development, Development Services, Enterprise Architecture, Enterprise Security, and infrastructure teams.
  • Mentor engineers and promote a culture of operational excellence, continuous improvement, and technology modernization.

Business Knowledge

  • Deep understanding of how reliability, availability, recoverability, and platform performance affect business outcomes and client experience.
  • Ability to balance delivery speed with security, resilience, risk, cost, and operational sustainability.
  • Experience operating in regulated, risk-aware environments with strong security and compliance requirements.
  • Ability to translate enterprise strategy into practical cloud platform standards, roadmaps, and engineering priorities.
  • Makes decisions aligned with enterprise technology strategy while improving incident recovery, reducing repeat issues, and strengthening platform stability.

  • Strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure, networking, platform services, automation, and reliability layers.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to serve as a design authority and influence teams without formal line management.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and leading technical decisions across organizational boundaries.
