  • Keep the Active Listening build pipeline green so Surprise deploys never wait on a red light
  • Watch Active Listening error budgets and pump the brakes before Surprise, AZ burns through them
  • Wrangle OWASP Top 10 config across environments so Surprise staging mirrors production

  What You'll Bring

  • 1 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
  • Track record that proves you can quietly-relentless ship under deadline pressure
  • Junior-caliber judgment about when to escalate and when to absorb
  • The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard
  • The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
