The Customer Assurance Program (CAP) Manager leads RapidScale's proactive, risk-based assurance program across private and public cloud managed services. This role is a deeply technical authority, customer-facing leader, and people manager responsible for identifying, assessing, and mitigating systemic risk across complex customer environments.

The CAP Manager serves as a senior technical leader within Cloud Support and must possess the technical credibility to challenge engineering assumptions, validate root cause analysis, and evaluate remediation strategies across cloud infrastructure, virtualization, networking, security, and managed service operations. This individual translates complex technical signals into clear action, leads executive-level operational governance, and develops CAP and incident leadership capability to improve service stability, prevent recurrence, and strengthen customer trust.

What You Will Do

• Own and operate the CAP portfolio, including intake, prioritization, and ongoing risk review for watchlist and strategic accounts.
• Serve as the senior technical authority for CAP, independently evaluating engineering recommendations, validating root cause findings, and ensuring remediation plans fully address both immediate failures and underlying systemic risk.
• Apply strong technical judgment across cloud infrastructure, virtualization, networking, security, and platform operations to assess risk severity, blast radius, failure domains, and root cause.
• Conduct deep technical reviews of major incidents, recurring service disruptions, architectural risks, and operational trends to identify patterns and prevent future customer impact.
• Evaluate architectural decisions, platform dependencies, operational readiness, and infrastructure design risks to proactively identify vulnerabilities before they impact customers.
• Establish and monitor early-warning indicators across incidents, change failure rates, capacity utilization, backlog health, SLA/SLO performance, operational maturity, and security posture.
• Lead structured internal and customer-facing reviews focused on environment health, incident trends, architectural risk, and remediation progress.
• Serve as a senior escalation and operational leader for complex P1/P2 incidents; ensure root cause analysis drives verified corrective and preventive actions.
• Challenge technical assumptions and facilitate cross-functional discussions among Cloud Engineering, Infrastructure, Networking, Security, and Operations teams to drive effective risk mitigation.
• Provide concise risk summaries, heatmaps, and executive-ready communications for leadership reviews, QBRs, escalations, and strategic customer discussions.
• Partner on tooling and data initiatives (Power BI, Salesforce, ServiceNow, operational dashboards) to improve visibility into operational health, reliability, and risk trends.
• Lead, mentor, and develop CAP
