• Own and drive incident, problem, and change management processes, including production troubleshooting, root-cause analysis (RCA), corrective actions, and prevention of recurring incidents.
• Define and track SRE metrics and practices, including SLIs, SLOs, SLAs, error budgets, availability, latency, MTTR, MTBF, and capacity/utilization metrics.
• Implement automation and self-healing mechanisms to eliminate repetitive operational activities, reduce manual intervention, and improve MTTR and overall system reliability.
• Develop and maintain backup, disaster recovery, business continuity, scalability, and capacity-management strategies for critical AWS workloads and applications.
• Lead and mentor SRE/DevOps engineers, conduct technical reviews, establish engineering standards, collaborate with development, security, and architecture teams, and continuously improve the organization's DevOps and SRE maturity.
