  • Partner with Operations & Infrastructure peers to support ongoing platform maintenance, enhancement, and reliability.
  • Support multiple internal stakeholders across a variety of technical challenges by analyzing recurring issues, identifying patterns, and proposing effective solutions.
  • Support the Visa Cloud SRE team's 24-7-365 operating model, including shift-based and on-call coverage, with weekend support as required.
