DevOps Engineer

- Own the reliability, availability, and performance of microservices and production workloads.

- Design and improve resilient infrastructure on GCP, with strong emphasis on Cloud Run, Kubernetes, and containerized services.

- Build and maintain observability across logs, metrics, tracing, alerting, and service health so issues are detected early and resolved quickly.

- Improve deployment safety through stronger CI/CD pipelines, release controls, rollback strategies, and environment consistency.

- Lead incident response and production readiness practices, including runbooks, postmortems, on-call hygiene, capacity planning, and resilience testing.

- Reduce operational toil by automating repetitive work and improving tooling for engineers supporting distributed services.

- Partner with development teams to improve the operability, scalability, and fault tolerance of microservices early in the design lifecycle.

- Strengthen cloud security and infrastructure hygiene across IAM, secrets management, workload hardening, and production safeguards.

- Improve service performance, resource efficiency, and cloud cost management without compromising reliability.

- Support architecture and reliability reviews for critical services and high-traffic business events.
