Overview

Do you have a low tolerance for manual work and look to automate everything you can?

BizOps and SRE is leading the operational transformation at Mastercard through our tooling and by being an advocate for change & standards throughout the development, quality, release, and product & engineering organizations. In parallel with our constant dedication on operational excellence, we are also highly focused on identifying any potential technical/operational risks, reporting them for awareness and following them up for mitigation.

Mission

The role of business operations is to be the production readiness steward for the platform. This is accomplished by closely partnering with other technical teams to design, build, implement, and support technology services. Business operations teams ensure operational criteria like system availability, capacity, performance, monitoring, self-healing, and deployment automation are implemented throughout the delivery process.

We accomplish this transformation through supporting daily operations with a hyper focus on triage and then root cause by understanding the business impact of our products.

Ultimately, the role of BizOps & SRE is to align product and customer focused priorities with operational needs. We regularly review our run state not only from an internal perspective, but also understanding and providing the feedback loop to all our stakeholders on how we can improve the customer experience of our applications.
