  • Monitor production health, review logs and alerts, and assist with routine operational support using established runbooks.
  • Help document incidents, recurring issues, and operational procedures clearly and accurately.
  • Contribute small bug fixes, low-risk enhancements, and internal tooling improvements under guidance.
  • Collaborate closely with Development QA, and Support teammates to improve product quality, release confidence, and operational reliability.

What Success Looks Like:

In this role success means becoming a dependable junior contributor who improves release confidence, reduces team friction, and steadily expands ability to contribute across QA, operations, and development.

Preferred:

  • Exposure to CI/CD pipelines, deployments, logs, or monitoring tools.
  • Basic scripting or coding experience for bug fixes, automation, or tooling.
