• Implement and maintain IAM, secrets management, and compliance posture across cloud providers
• Build and maintain Datadog observability -- monitors, dashboards, log pipelines, and SLOs
• Participate in an on-call rotation (PagerDuty) for the Dragos cloud fleet -- triage, respond to, and resolve production incidents across customer environments
• Drive SRE practices: define SLOs, manage error budgets, maintain runbooks, and lead post-incident reviews
• Support audit and compliance activities including evidence collection for FedRAMP, SOC2, and customer-specific requirements
• Identify and eliminate toil through automation and process improvement

Qualifications

• Strong ownership mindset and accountability for production stability
• Excellent communication, documentation, and collaboration skills
