Roles & Responsibilities:

Provide technical leadership to the Insights and Incident Response teams, promoting an AI-forward approach in operations and fostering innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Oversee the development and enhancement of the Insights team’s self-serve observability platform and the Incident Response team, guiding them towards proactive and predictive analysis to maintain high SLAs and preempt system issues while effectively leveraging AIOps for enhanced operational efficiency. Cultivate an in-depth understanding of the enterprise, cloud, and production infrastructure, associated products, applications, and services, and analyze and troubleshoot these complex distributed systems, advocating best practices based on observed design and incident patterns and providing domain expertise for early design guidance and decision-making.

Establish and enforce reliability standards and gated thresholds, including Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs), in partnership with Enterprise Architecture to ensure all products, services, and applications, whether vendor-sourced, open-source, or internally developed, adhere to these standards to guarantee observability, resilience, and reliability. Lead the post-mortem process, ensuring thorough analysis and actionable outcomes from each incident are addressed by the identified owners and act as the primary contact during incidents, guiding the response team to practical solutions that drive improvements to foster a culture of proactive learning and system resilience. Design and implement internal tools and software solutions to address gaps in observability and reliability, bridging existing capabilities with emerging needs and ensuring these solutions enhance system monitoring, incident response, and overall infrastructure resilience.
