Guidance for best use of cloud infrastructure
Capacity modeling: Craft a proposal for managing capacity reservations that strikes the perfect balance between savings and flexibility.
Optimize the Cloud: Team up with engineering teams to evaluate and upgrade cloud server instances.
Solve observability puzzles: The eng team wants to move a service to a serverless backend, and pull you in to help figure out how alerts, logs, and deployments should work.
Automate All the Things: So you automate provisioning GCP projects needed to deal with their per-project limits and various data isolation requirements.
Tame Noisy Alerts: Hunt down the root causes of noisy alerts and tweak configurations so we only hear from the system when it matters.
Security Meets Sanity: Work with management to make secure development policies straightforward.
Chasing Errors Across the Galaxy: Track down the cause of a 500 error across five codebases, two observability platforms, and three legacy servers.
Scale the Platform: Keep our infrastructure humming as we grow—enhance, maintain, and iterate to keep everything running smoothly.
Write it Down: Create technical documentation that's useful for engineers, understandable for stakeholders, and not soul-crushing to read.
