- Build and operate highly available services across multiple regions/data centers; improve resilience, latency, and scalability.
- Develop automation and tooling to reduce toil (deployment, remediation, runbooks, self-healing) using scripting and software engineering best practices.
- Define and implement SLOs/SLIs/SLAs; create dashboards and alerting to track service health (availability, latency, errors, saturation).
- Lead sustainable incident response: triage, mitigation, root-cause analysis (RCA), and blameless postmortems with actionable follow-ups.
