- Define delivery changes as code, including pipeline, deployment, and configuration changes. Use Terraform for Octopus configuration and Build and Release-owned Azure resources.
- Improve build and deployment reliability through automated validation, recovery and rollback capabilities, and analysis of failure modes.
- Enable development and other technology teams to deploy through reliable self-service workflows and provide escalated technical guidance when problems occur.
- Support the application release team when build or deployment problems occur and directly own selected Information Technology releases.
- Partner with other technical leaders to ensure all newly introduced systems are supportable and maintainable by both development and operations.
- Identify opportunities for improving service delivery, the delivery platform, and release processes through process improvement and continual development of documentation and runbooks.
