Key Responsibilities
  • Contribute to the development and execution of CoBank's cloud strategy, focusing on cloud-native architectures, microservices, and distributed systems.

  • Establish and sustain standards for monitoring, logging, and alerting, ensuring systems are robustly monitored for performance and reliability.
  • Champion security best practices within the software development lifecycle, integrating DevSecOps and shift-left principles to proactively manage security risks.
