• Security Management: Implement and maintain security tools, support ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance efforts, and respond to security incidents.
• DevOps & Automation: Manage source control systems, administer build and release pipelines, and improve Infrastructure-as-Code.

Level II Responsibilities

• Operate with greater independence, owning end-to-end initiatives and complex technical projects.
• Drive strategic improvements, from pipeline optimization to automation and scalability.
• Provide mentorship and knowledge-sharing to junior engineers and peers.
• Collaborate with leadership on infrastructure design, tooling decisions, and security enhancements.

The DevOps Team is accountable for five core domains: Infrastructure Health, Infrastructure Security, Application Security, Application Reliability, and DevOps Efficacy.
