• Take technical ownership of key platform domains, such as secrets management, infrastructure as code, monitoring pipelines, or cost visibility tooling
• Champion internal adoption of platform capabilities by writing excellent documentation, creating onboarding guides, and supporting team usage through async support and office hours
• Migration of legacy infrastructure components (such as : Secret management tool, Permission management tools) to new platform tooling mainly based on Kubernetes resulting in DevOps culture mindset (You build it, You own it)
• Participate in our regular on-call rotation (off-hours) & firefighting (on-hours), using that insight to continuously reduce toil through automation, self-healing systems, and smarter alert routing
