Drive cloud transformation outcomes (Azure preferred, AWS or GCP considered): modernize workloads, adopt managed services, and improve reliability, performance, and cost efficiency
Ensure test automation and code quality: promote unit testing, contract testing, and CI/CD gates; champion observability (logs, metrics, tracing)
Communicate with customers and stakeholders: scope requirements, provide consulting/training, and lead troubleshooting/problem solving with transparency
Continuously improve processes and solutions: run retrospectives, simplify architectures, and remove bottlenecks across teams
