  • Manage multiple concurrent workstreams with competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Identify process gaps and implement improvements to strengthen project execution and delivery frameworks.
  • Support and enhance existing infrastructure environments, including outage management, upgrade planning, and lifecycle management.
  • Ensure adherence to compliance standards, security protocols, and operational best practices.
