- Provide best practices for embedding security (encryption, access control, secrets management, and compliance), and deploy monitoring, logging, and alerting systems for platform observability.
- Build developer-facing abstractions, such as command-line tools or APIs, to simplify platform interactions and enable self‐service usage.
- Create clear documentation, runbooks, training materials, and onboarding guides; approach the platform as a product with a focus on developer usability.
