* Support deployments of modular software platforms
* Troubleshoot infrastructure, networking, and performance issues
* Work closely with software engineers to improve reliability, security, and performance
* Support on‑site installations and system commissioning when required
* Create and maintain clear technical documentation for internal use
* Develop and evolve automation roadmaps for DevOps and deployment processes
