- Champion a modern DevOps & SRE culture: You will be a key advocate for DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles. You will evolve our CI/CD pipelines, enhance our observability stack (monitoring, logging, tracing), and mentor others on best practices.
- Collaborate to deliver robust solutions: You will partner with software engineers, security specialists, and other cross-functional teams to embed reliability and security into the entire software development lifecycle. You'll ensure our documentation is clear, concise, and valuable.
