• Lead root cause analysis, blameless postmortems, and proactive incident management to minimize MTTR and MTTD.

• Define and monitor SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets to ensure system reliability.

4. Microservices & API Management:

• Architect and manage microservices, serverless computing, and RESTful APIs.

• Ensure fault tolerance and resilience using design patterns like Circuit Breaker, Retry, Timeout, and Bulkhead.

5. Chaos Engineering & Resiliency:

• Conduct chaos engineering experiments using tools like AWS FIS and Chaos Toolkit.

• Perform resiliency assessments using Resilience Hub and implement self-healing solutions.

6. Database & Application Support:

• Manage and optimize database technologies such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB, Oracle, and Redshift.

• Provide production support, including incident response, problem management, and runbook creation. Participate in on-call rotations.

7. Collaboration & Communication:

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement shift-left testing practices (BDD, TDD, Unit, Regression).

• Create and maintain architecture diagrams, knowledge articles, and disaster recovery plans.

• Communicate effectively with stakeholders and demonstrate strong relationship management skills.
