Automate infrastructure delivery through CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Spacelift) and expand self-service capabilities for product teams.
Own and evolve core platform components so teams can build, deploy, and operate services more autonomously.
Review pull requests, share knowledge, and help maintain high engineering standards across the platform.
Evaluate and introduce new AWS services, tools, and cloud-native patterns where they add clear value.
Strengthen the platform's security, compliance, and resilience through clear standards, guardrails, and robust platform design.
Work closely with product teams to understand their needs, remove bottlenecks in developer workflows, and translate those needs into scalable platform solutions.
