  • Improve incident response workflows, lead critical incident triage, and drive blameless postmortems. Keep documentation current and actionable.
  • Analyze recurring issues, perform deep-dive investigations, and collaborate across teams to implement long-term fixes and resiliency strategies.
  • Develop automation scripts (Python, Bash, PowerShell) for routine tasks, system health checks, and self-healing mechanisms to reduce manual intervention.
  • Work closely with Engineering, DevOps, and Business stakeholders to align operations with business goals and coordinate production readiness for deployments.
  • Exposure to tools like Istio and Launch Darkly to support traffic management and controlled feature rollouts.
  • Participate in release planning and coordination, pre/post-deployment validations, and production cutover support.

  • Proficiency in Java, AWS Cloud Platform/Infra, API Engineering, and Mainframe systems.
  • Advanced experience with observability tooling (Datadog, Splunk) and Python scripting for integrations and automation.
  • Strong Linux/Unix systems knowledge and understanding of cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, and ITSM tools.
  • Experience with SQL/NoSQL database monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Understanding of distributed systems and microservices architectures.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to perform under pressure.
