• Integrate and monitor external vendor systems, collaborating with vendor technical support when needed.

Key Requirements

• Experience working with AWS and CI/CD tools.

• Practical knowledge of SLI/SLO/Error Budget frameworks.

• Experience leading and documenting incidents and post-mortems.

• Scripting skills for automation (Python, Bash, or Go).

Nice to Have
