• Contribute to the development and maintenance of incident response playbooks to ensure preparedness for various failure scenarios.
• Participate in communication efforts during incidents, updating stakeholders and keeping clear records of incident activities.
  
  

• Monitor system performance and health using tools like Prometheus and Grafana, identifying any performance issues or potential incidents.
• Help implement automation and process improvements to enhance efficiency and reduce manual intervention in incident detection and recovery.
• Support the development of KPIs and SLAs for incident management and ensure alignment with team goals.
• Collaborate with engineers across teams to improve platform reliability, resilience improvements, and disaster recovery.

• Work closely with other engineers to troubleshoot system issues, refine workflows, and support ongoing operational needs.
• Participate in knowledge-sharing activities, helping improve team processes and learning from senior team members.
• Take part in training and mentorship opportunities to build technical skills and grow into more advanced responsibilities within the team.

• 4 years of experience in cloud operations, site reliability engineering (SRE), or related technical roles.
• Understanding of cloud platforms (e.g., Kubernetes, AWS, GCP) and basic knowledge of cloud infrastructure.
• Familiarity with incident management practices and frameworks (e.g., ITIL, SRE best practices).
• Experience with monitoring and alerting tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana) or willingness to learn.
• Basic experience with scripting or automation tools (e.g., Python, Bash, Terraform, Ansible).
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly and concisely to both technical and non-technical team members.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment while learning and adapting quickly.

• Exposure to Kubernetes, containerization, and distributed systems.
• Familiarity with change management processes and post-incident analysis.
• Experience with automated systems or self-healing infrastructure is a plus.
• A desire to learn and grow in the areas of cloud operations, reliability engineering, and incident management.
