  • Security by Design: Champion infrastructure security. Partner with InfoSec to define hardening standards, manage perimeter defense (WAF/DDoS), and automate vulnerability remediation within the CI/CD pipeline.
  • Incident Command: Participate in the 24x7 on-call rotation and lead post-incident reviews (RCAs), ensuring action items are implemented to improve MTTR and prevent recurrence.
