• Design, build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines that enable secure, repeatable, and reliable application delivery
• Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code, configuration management, and automation frameworks for cloud environments
• Build and evolve observability capabilities, including application and infrastructure monitoring, logging, alerting, tracing, dashboards, service-level indicators, and service-level objectives
• Improve the reliability, scalability, performance, security, and cost efficiency of production systems
• Lead or support application, infrastructure, database, and cloud migration initiatives, including planning, automation, validation, rollback strategies, and post-migration monitoring
• Develop automation tools and frameworks that reduce manual operational work and improve engineering productivity
• Partner with application teams to establish deployment standards, operational readiness criteria, monitoring requirements, and incident-response practices
• Troubleshoot production incidents, identify root causes, document findings, and implement durable corrective and preventive actions
• Proactively identify risks in technical designs, deployment processes, system performance, observability coverage, or architecture and escalate them appropriately
• Apply AI tools as part of daily work to analyze systems, troubleshoot issues, design automation, improve documentation, and accelerate delivery workflows
• Collaborate with engineers and cross-functional stakeholders to establish scalable platform and DevOps practices
• Mentor engineers in areas such as CI/CD, cloud operations, observability, automation, infrastructure-as-code, and production support

• Experience implementing observability solutions, including centralized logging, metrics, alerting, dashboards, distributed tracing, and incident response processes
• Experience building automation frameworks or scripting operational workflows using technologies such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, PowerShell, Bash, or similar languages
• Experience supporting application, database, infrastructure, or cloud migration efforts
• Experience working with SQL databases and data migration or deployment processes
• Experience supporting high-volume, highly available, multi-tier enterprise systems
• Experience leveraging AI tools to analyze, design, debug, automate, document, and improve daily engineering workflows
