• Strengthen observability, uptime discipline, and incident response while leading cloud cost and capacity optimization efforts as our platform scales.
• Cultivate team capabilities, manage project plans, and build a high-accountability engineering culture that scales fluidly with company needs.
• Evaluate and implement AI powered DevOps tools to improve deployment, monitoring, and incident response processes.
• Leverage AI and machine learning solutions for predictive analytics, anomaly detection, capacity planning, and root-cause analysis.
• Establish governance, security, and compliance standards for AI enabled infrastructure and operations.
• Monitor emerging AI technologies and identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual effort.
