• Technical Skills:
  • Define and influence large infrastructure initiatives such as creating the abstraction for Kubernetes and istio
  • Operate reliable and cost efficient cloud infrastructure
• Complexity and Impact of Work:
  • Lead the initiative to migrate from monolith to microservice architecture such as decomposing Terraform and Kubernetes configurations
  • Build or adopt deployment tools to automate the deployment process
