- Implement customer-focused abstractions that simplify and standardize the way we offer our cloud services, topologies and implementations.
- Lead and defend technical decisions providing design justification, coordination, and identifying value and requirements for other teams in the organization. Communicate to gather requirements and evangelize the Cloud offerings, and to understand gaps and improvements.
