Collaborate with platform engineers and developers to optimize serving layers and data-processing pipelines.
Perform root cause analysis and support incident resolution for infrastructure-related issues.
Contribute to architectural decisions related to platform resilience, capacity, and automation strategy.
Maintain up-to-date documentation, operational runbooks, and SOPs for infrastructure components.
