- Responsible for .nz tld are staffed by 4 technical employees doing 24x7 on call support

- Engagement surveys captured staff feeling fatigued and under resources at entire org level

- Hard to hire for roles due to specialisation

- Team moving away from BAU work to projects

- Issues raised by external partner but team had other immediate work pressures

- Had to contact ex-employee that use to worked there to help resolve

- Once a year critical take just done by one team member

- Many IT operations tasks have sufficient external dependencies that it is impossible to tell – for certain that the task will be successful in production without doing the task in the production environment. - We've all been there.

Sounds like InternetNZ should actually outsource all of this to an external party and just focus on governance work.
