- Drive the ongoing development of AI Marketplace
- Establish the support automation strategy, determining which requests the bot handles, what tools and permissions it needs, and how resolution rate is tracked
- Set standards for Terraform, observability, runbooks, and on-call practices
- Analyze bot escalations for recurring patterns and convert them into prioritized automation initiatives
- Mentor mid-level engineers through code reviews, design reviews, and pairing sessions
- Serve as the escalation point for complex incidents and cross-team requests
- Collaborate with product and other teams to prioritize work and align expectations Requirements
