• Continuously improve deployment safety, speed, and repeatability.


• Work cross-functionally with engineering, product, security, and infrastructure teams.


• Participate in architecture discussions and contribute to technical decision-making.


• Identify opportunities to modernize infrastructure and tooling based on evolving business and technical needs.


• Ensure infrastructure is standardized, reproducible, and well-documented.


• Enable engineering teams to deploy and operate services faster with less friction.


• Facilitate the platform evolving in response to real developer needs and business priorities.
