Participate in an on-call rotation, responding to incidents and support requests from other engineering teams.
Partner with engineering teams to help them use our platforms well, from deployment and configuration to monitoring and alerting.
Troubleshoot infrastructure issues from first report to root cause, and escalate early when a fix crosses team boundaries.
Help keep our platforms reliable and cost-efficient as usage grows.
Write runbooks and documentation that help on-call engineers, AI Agents and other teams solve problems on their own..
Make task-level implementation decisions, escalate ambiguity early, and incorporate feedback to improve EngOps execution.

A solid understanding of core DevOps tools, systems, and practices, coupled with the initiative to ship consistent, high-quality work.
The ability to execute tasks independently while managing time and priorities effectively.
Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, and AWS services such as ECS, IAM and networking.
Working experience with observability in production: metrics, logs, tracing and alerting.
Strong communication and collaboration skills to build trust with the team and influence positive outcomes.
Effective problem-solving skills and a strong sense of ownership and accountability for your work.
An awareness of security and privacy, system design, and strategic thinking within an operations environment.
Nice to Have:
