Collaborate with engineering, infrastructure, architecture, and risk teams to validate technical designs and implementation plans.
Define reusable technical patterns and tooling strategies that enhance operational readiness and control sustainability.
Support roadmap shaping, tooling assessment, and documentation for governance and operational readiness.
Required Skills & Experience:
10+ years in engineering, infrastructure, or technical architecture roles in complex technology environments.
Solid understanding of compute, storage, and network capacity planning across mixed deployment models.
Familiarity with SRE disciplines such as observability, service-level indicators/objectives (SLIs/SLOs), and automation of operational tasks.
Demonstrated ability to interpret and apply control requirements in technical design contexts.
Hands-on experience with performance monitoring, alerting systems, and diagnostic tooling (e.g., Geneos, Prometheus, Grafana, AppDynamics, or similar tools).
Strong communication skills able to convey technical concepts to senior stakeholders and control partners.
Desirable:
Experience in implementing or uplifting operational controls (capacity, performance, availability).
Exposure to internal risk frameworks or external regulatory requirements (e.g., DORA, EBA, PRA).
Background in service reliability, system diagnostics, or incident response.
