Responsibilities

  • Design and build an enterprise-grade chaos engineering platform for multi-cluster, multi-region, and multi-environment Kubernetes and EC2 deployments.
  • Develop fault injection, production safety, traffic isolation, fault isolation, experiment orchestration, rollback, kill-switch, and real-time impact-monitoring capabilities.
  • Integrate chaos experiments with monitoring, alerting, and SLO systems to create an automated fault-injection and validation loop.
  • Define production fault-injection safety standards and approval workflows for mainnet systems.
  • Plan and execute daily, periodic, and large-scale cross-region or cross-AZ resilience and disaster-recovery experiments.
  • Create resilience scoring systems, recommend improvements, and drive remediation of identified weaknesses.
