• Support the development of standards, processes, and policies related to the design and consumption of infrastructure technologies (network, compute, storage, database).
• Develop automation using Infrastructure as Code and Configuration Management principles to build, deploy, and configure infrastructure components in a consistent and reproducible manner.
• Create comprehensive support documentation, and high-level-architecture diagrams.
• Collaborate closely with Technical Operations and Support teams to facilitate seamless integration and continuous improvement.
