- Develop GTM enablement tools for service line owners — pricing/scoping calculators, ROI demo scripts, and live CRM integrations that surface upsell signals.
Quality, Observability & Delivery Excellence
- Design and maintain self-service dashboards with real-time alerts—tracking cycle-time, QA pass-rate, error budgets, margin and customer sentiment—so LoB GMs and CSMs can see service-line performance at a glance
- Partner with Data Analyst to surface actionable insights that drive continuous‑improvement sprints.
- Develop automated QA checks to ensure consistency and compliance of engagement outputs.
Cross-functional Impact
- Translate pentest and red team needs into codified logic and reusable automation
- Work closely with Product, Platform, and ASG Ops to drive end-to-end delivery efficiency
- Contribute to playbooks, observability frameworks, and SRE principles where applicable.
- Work with service line Directors to prioritise GTM enablement backlog (pricing calculators, ROI demos).
Education, Experience, Skills, & Abilities
- 5+ years in DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering roles
- Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD tools (Terraform, GitHub Actions, Argo, etc.)
