• Collaborate with engineering and product teams to improve system reliability, speed, and performance.
• Set up, maintain, and improve CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or CodePipeline.
• Perform load and stress testing, analyze performance bottlenecks, and provide remediation strategies.
• Lead incident response, root cause analysis, and develop robust postmortem practices.
• Define and implement infrastructure as code (IaC) using Terraform or CloudFormation.
• Manage observability stack: logs, metrics, traces using tools like CloudWatch, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, or Splunk.
