• Ship Safely at Scale: Collaborate with Software Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers (SRE),and QE to build automated quality gates and reduce deployment lead time.
• Operational Excellence: Triage build and deployment issues, run blameless root cause analyses, and implement proactive monitors to prevent regressions.
• Innovate Developer Tooling: Explore and integrate next-generation developer tooling, including AI-assisted automation, MCP (Model Context Protocol) integrations, and developer-productivity tooling.

Minimum Qualifications

• Proficiency in at least one modern language/scripting tool (Python, Bash, Go, or Java).
• Fundamental understanding of Git workflows, version control best practices, and core CI/CD principles.
