• Own the CI/CD pipeline in Jenkins: build, automated test, static analysis and security scanning gates, artefact promotion, and repeatable deployment to every environment.
• Keep Confluence the single source of truth for designs, runbooks, onboarding and decision records — documentation is part of done, not an afterthought.
