- Drive a customer-first posture in every incident to ensure timely, accurate updates and clear ownership from detection through resolution
- Drive Postmortem Rigor and Customer RCA Quality
- Own postmortem quality end-to-end: facilitation, root cause analysis, corrective action definition, and ensuring follow-through

- Own and evolve the incident management tooling stack with a bias towards agentic assistance
- Analyze incident data to identify recurring patterns and feed learnings back into engineering practices
- When incident load allows, direct your team's capacity toward runbook improvements, automation, and operational hygiene
- Represent Cross-Functionally
- Partner with Legal, PR, and Customer Success on customer-facing communications during and after major incidents
- Brief engineering leadership and executives during active incidents with clarity and composure
- Be the person engineering teams proactively seek out when operational standards and incident practices need to improve

- Proven experience as an incident commander in high-severity, customer-impacting outages at scale. You've personally run incidents that mattered

- Deep understanding of distributed systems failure modes (Kafka/event streaming experience preferred, or demonstrated ability to rapidly master complex systems)
- Strong track record with postmortem facilitation and driving corrective actions to completion
- Excellent written communication with customers regarding root-cause analysis. You are comfortable stating things with conviction to executive audiences
- Experience working with cross-functional stakeholders (legal, PR, customer success) during incident response
