- Cross-Functional Partnership
- Reporting to the Director of Cloud Operations, work closely with other Cloud Operations leaders to align SRE priorities, operating practices, resource plans, and transformation activities across the wider function. Partner with Engineering, Product, Security, and Support teams to connect operational priorities with product roadmaps, customer needs, and business objectives. Use operational insight to influence technical decisions, improve long-term platform health, and provide senior leaders with clear, evidence-based recommendations on reliability, risk, capacity, and investment priorities.
- Security, Governance, and Continuous Improvement
- Work with Security and Governance teams to strengthen platform security, reduce operational risk, and support compliance and vulnerability management initiatives. Establish a continuous improvement approach informed by service data, operational metrics, automation opportunities, and emerging technologies, including responsible use of AI-enabled solutions.
- Cloud Operations and FinOps
- Support cloud optimization and capacity planning by balancing reliability, performance, scalability, and cost. Identify opportunities to simplify operations, improve resource utilization, and reduce avoidable spend without compromising service quality or resilience.
