Resilience Architecture Governance: Participate in the review and governance of system architectures to ensure they meet defined reliability, availability, and scalability requirements. Contribute to the design and implementation of resilient solutions.
Capacity Planning and Performance Optimization: Participate in capacity planning activities and contribute to the identification and implementation of performance optimization strategies.
Change Management: Participate in the change management process, ensuring changes are implemented with minimal risk and disruption to services.
Documentation and Knowledge Sharing: Create and maintain clear and concise documentation for processes, procedures, and troubleshooting guides. Actively share knowledge with the team.
Collaboration and Communication: Effectively communicate technical issues and solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Collaborate effectively with crossfunctional teams.
Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities for process and system improvements and actively contribute to their implementation.
ITSM Governance and Compliance: Adhere to and contribute to the development and enforcement of IT Service Management (ITSM) policies and procedures, ensuring alignment with industry best practices (ITIL).
Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We'd love to work with you if you have:
Strong communication and interpersonal skills. Experience driving incident resolution through bridge calls and leading root cause analysis with technology partners.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Familiarity with resilience engineering principles and practices.
Understanding of infrastructure components (servers, networks, databases, cloud platforms).
Proficiency in at least one scripting language (preferably Python) for automation and tooling.
Experience with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack, Splunk).
Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills.
Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
Nice to Have:
SRE certification.
Knowledge of observability & related tools.
Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP).
