- Own end-to-end delivery of cross-team network infrastructure initiatives in APAC, from a vague problem statement to an executable plan to adoption
- Define scope and success criteria, align owners across SRE, SWE, network, security, platform and data center teams, and drive decisions to closure
- Review designs and technical proposals, challenge missing assumptions, and surface failure modes, dependencies and risks early
- Stay hands-on where it matters: step into incidents, write code or automation, and unblock the team
- Drive adoption: make sure tools and workflows become the default way of working, with real documentation, runbooks and feedback loops
- Keep stakeholders, including the European teams, informed with clear, honest status and coordinate across time zones
- Turn operational pain and engineering input into a clear, prioritized backlog
Qualifications
- 7+ years of experience in software, SRE, network or infrastructure engineering, including experience leading cross-team technical initiatives

- Ability to read design docs and technical proposals, understand trade-offs, and ask sharp questions about reliability, rollback, blast radius and failure modes
- Strong understanding of infrastructure fundamentals (Linux, networking, automation, CI/CD) at the level needed to hold your own in technical discussions
- Proven ability to drive decisions and create clarity in ambiguous, fast-changing environments
- Excellent written and verbal communication, including documenting plans and decisions and influencing smart technical people
- Ability to work independently in an early-stage environment and to build processes from scratch
- Professional working proficiency in English (spoken and written) and comfort working across time zones
