Engineering Career Stories: Meet Raluca

I'm currently a member of the Cloud Engineering team, and over the past year, we've been focused on implementing the TaaS (Telco as a Service) strategy. TaaS is all about collaborating with engineers from various markets to create a development environment and a comprehensive ecosystem of Network, IT, and Platform capabilities. The ultimate goal is to build solutions once and reuse them multiple times. This approach addresses the inefficiencies we previously faced, where each market was independently designing and implementing solutions to identical problems.

In my role as an SRE in the Security team, my primary responsibility is to ensure the security of the platform. This involves enforcing, monitoring, and maintaining security measures to safeguard our systems. A significant part of our work revolves around automating the configuration of diverse security tools, enabling us to implement and enforce best practices across the entire platform. We are also responsible for responding to security alerts and implementing necessary mitigations. This dynamic role keeps us engaged with the latest security best practices, allowing us to apply them to real-world challenges across multiple markets, not just in the UK. It's an exciting opportunity to make a tangible impact in the realm of security and protect our systems from evolving threats.
