• Support fleet-level configuration and operational tooling

CI/CD & Automation

• Improve and maintain CI/CD pipelines
• Automate build, deployment, and operational workflows
• Contribute to Infrastructure as Code practices and standards
• Reduce friction in engineering and release processes

Observability & Reliability

• Support monitoring, logging, and telemetry systems
• Improve visibility into system performance and health
• Assist in incident analysis and root-cause investigations
• Contribute to proactive system monitoring and optimisation

Collaboration

• Work closely with backend, data, and platform teams
• Participate in DevOps best practices and technical discussions
• Contribute to a culture of ownership, reliability, and continuous improvement
