Demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve complex incidents spanning multiple distributed components operating 24/7.
Experience with coordinated capacity planning and scaling for systems with significant infrastructure footprints.
Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and automated deployment practices.
