Cross discipline Enablement (DevSecOps / Platform / SRE): Improve collaboration across engineering disciplines by standardising processes and enabling platform and delivery capabilities that embed resiliency into application and infrastructure layers. Client Advisory Leadership: Lead advisory engagements, guide senior stakeholders through decisions on reliability investment, and coach teams to adopt new practices and measures sustainably (including training/enablement where needed). As part of your role you will also have the opportunity to contribute to the business and your own personal growth, through activities that form part of the following categories: Business Development - Leading/contributing to proposals, RFPs, bids, proposition development, client pitch contribution, client hosting at events.
