This role owns the runbook library that the overnight Production Support Engineers operate from, sets the standard for how feed delivery failures are detected and remediated, and serves as the primary escalation point when an overnight issue falls outside documented procedures. The Lead works a daytime or overlapping schedule by design: the role exists to ensure the overnight team is never operating without a tested, documented playbook, and that every new or modified feed is fully run-booked before it is accepted into overnight coverage. This role sits at the build-to-run seam. PANTHERx produces custom data feeds delivered to external partners via SFTP under contractual SLAs, and these feeds are built by the Partner Data Services engineering team. The Lead owns the handoff that ensures support can reliably operate what engineering builds. This role is also accountable for preventing the divergence between build logic and remediation logic that accumulates when issues are fixed ad hoc overnight. This is a hands-on leader: the Lead personally resolves the most complex failures and is the deepest technical resource on partner feed structure and delivery within the support team. Responsibilities Runbook Ownership & Remediation Standards * Owns the feed support runbook library: documents known failure modes, approved remediation procedures, regeneration steps, and delivery verification for each partner data solution. * Establishes the standard that overnight engineers remediate from documented, approved runbooks, and defines the escalation threshold at which an issue outside the runbook is escalated rather than resolved ad hoc. * Reviews and updates runbooks continuously as feeds change, partner requirements evolve, and new failure modes areencountered, ensuring the overnight team is neveroperatingon stale procedures. * Conducts post-incident reviews for overnightescalations,feeding root causes back into the runbook library and to the engineering owners where a permanent pipeline-level fix iswarranted. Build-to-Run Handoff * Owns the acceptance standard by which new and modified feeds enter overnight coverage: a feed is not accepted into 24x5 support until it is documented, run-booked, andvalidatedagainst its delivery requirements. * Partners directly with the Partner Data Services engineering team in Data and Analytics to ensure remediation procedures reflect actual pipeline logic and do not diverge from how feeds are built. * Coordinates with the Partner Data Solutions product owners in Informatics on partner SLA expectations, feed specifications, and change communication that affect overnight support. Overnight Operations Leadership * Provides senior technical guidance and escalation support to the overnight Production Support Engineers, including during overlap hours and viaon-callfor issues beyond documented runbooks. * Defines shift coverage, rotation, andabsencebackfill for the overnight team, ensuring SLA commitments are sustained without reintroducing daytime overtime dependency. * Mentors anddevelopsthe overnightengineers on troubleshootingmethodology, SQL and data remediation skills, and runbook discipline. * Monitors overnight support metrics: failure detection time, remediation time, SLA attainment, and escalation frequency, surfacing trends and recurring failure modes for permanent resolution. Hands-On Remediation * Personallytroubleshoots and remediates the most complex feed delivery failures, including those requiring SQL-level investigation, file regeneration, and corrected redelivery to partners within SLA. * Serves as the deepest technical resource on partner feed structure, generation logic, and the SFTP delivery process within the support organization. ## Related Videos - [Debugging in the Dark](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1658-debugging-in-the-dark) - [Technical Documentation - How Can I Write Them Better and Why Should I Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/681-technical-documentation-how-can-i-write-them-better-and-why-should-i-care) - [Empowering Retail Through Applied Machine Learning](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/976-empowering-retail-through-applied-machine-learning) - [Software Engineering Social Connection: Yubo’s lean approach to scaling an 80M-user infrastructure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1583-software-engineering-social-connection-yubo-s-lean-approach-to-scaling-an-80m-user-infrastructure) - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [Bridging AI and Nomad: a Go-based MCP Server for Cluster Control](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2063-bridging-ai-and-nomad-a-go-based-mcp-server-for-cluster-control) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Making Data Warehouses Fast: A Developer’s Story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/107-making-data-warehouses-fast-a-developer-s-story) - [Everything a Developer Needs to Know About MCP with Neo4j](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/604-everything-a-developer-needs-to-know-about-mcp-with-neo4j) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies)
