• Champion automation of repetitive and manual operational tasks, including incident detection, response, validation, and recovery where feasible.
• Promote a culture of preventative engineering, partnering with development teams to improve system reliability upstream.

Monitoring, Observability & AI Enablement

• Implement and continuously improve real-time monitoring, alerting, and observability across applications and infrastructure.
• Measure and optimize the effectiveness of monitoring and alerting to eliminate noise and accelerate mean-time-to-detect and mean-time-to-recover.
• Leverage AI and advanced analytics to correlate telemetry data (logs, metrics, traces) and proactively identify emerging risks and root causes.
• Champion the safe and responsible use of AI within production operations by adhering to enterprise guardrails and protecting sensitive data and system integrity.

Operational Readiness & Change Enablement

• Oversee operational readiness across releases, disaster recovery and failover testing and certificate and dependency lifecycle management.
