  • Design and implement deployment pipelines, rollout strategies, and rollback mechanisms
  • Build Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for repeatable, reliable system deployment
  • Design and execute load, stress, and failure testing to validate system behavior under real conditions
  • Implement and test multi-region, high availability, and disaster recovery strategies
  • Continuously validate capacity, scaling limits, and degradation patterns
  • Work closely with backend and architecture teams to integrate operational concerns into system design from day one
  • Collaborate with ecosystem partners and upstream components to align on production operability requirements
  • You can collaborate across teams and influence how systems are designed, not just run

Requirements

  • Experience scaling multi‑tenant SaaS platforms.
  • Multi‑region or globally distributed system experience.
