- Improve and make enhancements to our platform infrastructure using Terraform, Helm and Kubernetes.

- Build and evolve self-service tooling and abstractions that reduce friction for developers and increase their productivity.

- Provide solutions to scale our infrastructure considering performance and maintainability.

- Monitor and administer production systems, ensuring 100% observability.
