Monitor system health and troubleshoot issues using observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Splunk.
Maintain and improve reliability metrics, uptime SLAs, and incident response processes.
Implement and maintain robust IT security practices, including patch management, network segmentation, and least-privilege access.
Collaborate with developers to containerise workloads and optimise system performance (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS).
