• Investigate and resolve issues, and validate that updates don’t break existing functionality.
• Maintain and improve build, test and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
• Run containerised services on cloud infrastructure and keep them running reliably.
• Package, version and document internal tooling so other engineers can adopt it easily.
• Monitor system health and escalate recurring issues that need broader attention.
