controls, and ensure compliance with organizational policies and industry
standards.
• Collaboration: Work closely with engineering, IT, and security teams to align
infrastructure solutions with application requirements and business objectives.
• Data Continuity Framework: Support the implementation of the data continuity
framework across different applications, ensuring consistency both from a
