In this position, you will lead initiatives focused on process optimization, automation, and data-driven decision-making to improve network infrastructure resilience and scalability. You will work on complex operational and reliability challenges, implementing technical and procedural solutions that have a global impact. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced operational environments, enjoys solving large-scale infrastructure challenges, and is passionate about driving innovation through automation and system optimization.

This will include helping others understand our requirements and drive their roadmaps, but may include directly implementing lightweight solutions in code. Data Measurement: As an operations practitioner supporting our network, you will be expected to drive quality into the metrics we report to assist us in focusing on the areas that give us the best return on investment.
