• Monitor system health, availability, and performance, proactively addressing reliability issues.

• Advocate and implement cloud-native solutions and container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).

• Contribute to the technology roadmap, providing recommendations on tools, processes, and platforms to improve scalability and efficiency.
