Design, build, and operate cloud-scale, multi-tenant infrastructure platforms with a strong focus on reliability, security, scalability, and operational excellence. Lead the design and implementation of Kubernetes-based infrastructure, including cluster architecture, networking, storage, and workload isolation strategies. Build and evolve Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions (e.g., ARM, Bicep, Terraform, Helm) to enable repeatable, auditable, and automated infrastructure provisioning and lifecycle management. Apply systems thinking to design for failure domains, including regional isolation, availability zone strategies, dependency management, and blast-radius reduction. Drive resiliency and reliability improvements through proactive design reviews, fault modeling, chaos testing, and post-incident learning. Build tooling and automation to detect, diagnose, and self-heal infrastructure and platform issues, enabling customers and support teams to self-resolve problems. Identify recurring operational issues and escalation patterns, and drive engineering solutions such as self-healing mechanisms, automation, guardrails, and platform abstractions. Partner closely with product, SRE, and Azure platform teams to define regional deployment strategies, capacity planning, and safe rollout patterns. Contribute to product and platform improvements by filing impactful bugs, proposing design changes, and shipping fixes to production to prevent customer impact. Communicate complex technical issues and recommendations clearly and concisely, influencing cross-team decisions and driving measurable business outcomes.
