• Ensure proactive alerting, threshold tuning, false-positive reduction, and early-warning detection.
• Run weekly operations review meetings with service owners using KPI-driven analysis.
• Drive capacity monitoring across cloud and data center environments (compute, storage, network).

• Ensure patching schedules, backup success rates, restore testing, and disaster recovery drills are consistently executed.
• Govern configuration management, standard builds, and environment consistency across dev/test/prod.
• Manage provisioning, resource tagging, lease expiration, cost monitoring, and capacity allocation.
• Maintain operational hygiene: certificate renewals, OS lifecycle management, etc.
• Add operational POV to all architectural, networking, storage, and information lifecycle management elements of our PJI technology ecosystem.

• Own operational controls related to security, compliance, and audit readiness.
