- Enable observability and resilience through logging, monitoring, tracing, and alerting solutions
- Collaborate with software, data, and security engineers to define standards and improve developer experience
- Champion automation-first approaches to configuration management, provisioning, and compliance
- Demonstrate ownership of environments - anticipating issues, communicating risks, and resolving problems early
- At higher levels: mentor peers, influence architecture, and set standards for operational excellence and security
