Support application deployments and troubleshoot production issues across infrastructure and application layers.

Collaborate closely with backend engineers to improve system performance, resilience, and operational best practices.

Gradually modernize infrastructure and deployment processes while working within an existing PHP/CodeIgniter codebase.

Document infrastructure, workflows, and operational runbooks to ensure clarity, reliability, and continuity.
