Team mentoring: Lead the evolution of our DevOps culture, mentoring other developers on CI/CD, cloud best practices and troubleshooting techniques.

6. Client support and incident response

Support: Provide front‑line technical support for clients, when required. Diagnose, prioritise, and help to resolve technical issues and bugs reported by clients.
