Storage and managed databases

Make pragmatic architectural trade-offs balancing cost, scalability, and complexity

CI/CD & Deployment

Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines for backend and frontend services

Implement safe deployment strategies (blue/green, canary, rollbacks)

Automate environment provisioning (dev, staging, production)

Improve deployment speed without sacrificing safety

Reliability & Operations

Ensure high availability and resilience of production systems

Set up monitoring, logging, and alerting

Experience with cost optimization and capacity planning

Exposure to SRE concepts (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets)

Experience supporting developer self-service platforms

Prior on-call ownership and incident leadership

What Success Looks Like

Production systems are stable, observable, and scalable

Deployments are frequent, safe, and automated

Incidents are rare, well-handled, and lead to lasting improvements

Infrastructure is reproducible and well-documented

Developers trust the platform and rarely need manual intervention

Nice-to-Have Traits
