Champion automation to reduce manual effort and improve delivery speed and quality.

Ensure observability (logging, metrics, alerting) across the platform and lead the team's incident response and post-incident review practices.
Partner with development and product teams to embed reliability and operational readiness into the delivery lifecycle.
