Maintain and improve monitoring, alerting, and incident response systems to proactively identify and address issues.

Dive deep into a large, legacy codebase to understand system behavior, identify defects, and implement robust, well-tested fixes.

Drive the creation and maintenance of documentation related to production support workflows, known issues, and resolution strategies.

Participate in post-incident reviews and contribute to long-term solutions that prevent recurrence.

Stay current with industry best practices in software reliability, observability, and support engineering, and apply them to enhance team effectiveness.

Foster a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous learning within the support team.
