• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of critical services, including production readiness, monitoring, incident response, and continuous improvement of reliability and performance.

• Safely integrate and operate AI/ML‑enabled solutions that improve outcomes, ensuring robust data handling, guardrails, and alignment with platform standards.
