Contribute to blameless postmortems and work with owning teams to turn incident learnings into systemic improvements
Build and maintain shared reliability tooling and automation that reduce toil, surface risks, and help teams make safer changes
Partner with service owners to identify Kubernetes patch and version risks, develop maintenance plans, and track owner-led updates to completion
Help service teams define and track Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and error budgets to balance feature velocity with reliability
Partner with software engineering teams on reliability patterns such as graceful degradation and circuit breakers
Contribute to capacity planning and performance testing with owning teams to help systems handle growth and peak operational demands
Create runbooks, documentation, and training materials that help teams operate production systems effectively
Partner with software engineering teams to improve deployment safety through progressive rollouts, automated testing, and rollback capabilities
Work with service owners to incorporate security best practices and compliance controls in production environments handling sensitive defense data
