4. Implement and enforce cloud security best practices across infrastructure and applications
5. Collaborate with development teams to support and maintain data pipelines (primarily Airflow)
6. Drive automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
7. Troubleshoot operational issues, cooperate with cross-functional teams, and resolve infrastructure problems
