  • Production Support & Stability

    Act as the owner of platform stability—leading incident response, root cause analysis, and preventative measures actions.

  • Institutionalize blameless postmortems and 5 Whys methodology to drive learning.
  • Track SLOs and SLIs (uptime, latency, error rates); enforce error budgets as part of release gating.
  • Continuously reduce MTTR (mean time to recovery) and P1 / P2 recurrence rates.
  • DevOps & Reliability Engineering
