Your role in the team
- Stability & Reliability: You are responsible for maintaining and optimizing the stability and availability of our highly available, resilient storage infrastructure (block, object, backup, and file storage). You ensure this through proactive monitoring, independently resolve emerging incidents, and prevent them from recurring.
- Automation: You automate deployment and operational processes in the storage environment, always striving to improve a little every day and continuously optimize our products.
- Architecture: Together with your team, you are responsible for a robust and efficient storage architecture—because you care about building a reliable, long-term solution that our customers enjoy using.
- End-to-end ownership: We place great importance on identifying with the products we provide to our customers. That’s why we actively embrace end-to-end ownership, supported by many internal STACKIT service teams in enhancing our services.
- Performance and capacity planning: You analyze and optimize the performance of our existing systems to support the future scaling of our landscape. This also includes proactive capacity planning.
- Incident and postmortem analysis: You are responsible for investigating (major) incidents involving storage as part of STACKIT’s Incident & Problem Management process, with the aim of deriving mitigating measures for the future and successfully implementing them.
