DevOps-SRE Partnership

  • Collaborate with SRE to ensure deployments align with reliability and observability standards

  • Support incident response by improving deployment traceability and rollback mechanisms

  • Align DevOps automation with operational requirements defined by SRE

Technical Expertise & Qualifications

Demonstrated hands-on expertise across modern DevOps ecosystems, including:

  • CI/CD & Automation: Designing and operating scalable pipelines using GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, GitLab CI, or similar platforms
