  • Manage DNS, networking, and delivery routing systems including global traffic managers, failover policies, and load-balancing configurations across multiple data centers.
  • Develop automation and tooling to support alerting, ticket creation, and configuration validation using Splunk, Tines, and Jira.
  • Collaborate with traffic engineering, observability, and infrastructure teams to ensure scalable, fault-tolerant configurations across multi-CDN environments.
  • Participate in a global on-call rotation for perimeter-related incidents and operational escalations.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of runbooks, dashboards, and operational standards for the PSOC.
