About the Team

The Service Reliability Engineering team envisions ensuring service stability as one of the company's core competitive advantages. By building end-to-end, chain-level risk management capabilities, we aim to achieve sustainable, automated identification and analysis of stability risks, transitioning from "reactive governance" to "proactive governance". This approach allows us to preemptively address more stability issues, improving user experience.
