  • Implement automated security gatekeeping, including the generation of SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials), vulnerability scanning, and license compliance for all Python and Rust artifacts
  • Work with the team to help design and implement monitoring frameworks to track build performance; assist in automated load and performance testing of the Python stack to identify regressions before release
  • Identify and eliminate manual bottlenecks by transitioning legacy workflows into modern, 'everything-as-code' processes
  • Oversee the lifecycle of third-party dependencies, ensuring that the supply chain is secure, from source code to the final distributed package
