On-Call Roster is the public-facing live roster. Who is the primary on-call for each team right now? Who is next? When does the hand-off happen? Anyone in the org can open the page; nobody has to ask in Slack. Designed for the visitor with one question, not the operator configuring rotations.
The page is built for the visitor with one question: "who do I page?" Top of the page, biggest type: who is on-call right now per team, with their preferred channel (Slack, PagerDuty, phone). Below that: who is next, and when. Everything else is one scroll away.
Below the right-now block, a 4-week lookahead grid shows every rotation. Hand-offs, quiet-hour overrides, vacation coverage. Useful for planning meetings ("who is on-call next week so we can avoid scheduling them in the all-hands?") and for engineers who want to see their own rotation.
The roster is visible to anyone in the org, not just engineering. Customer support, sales, account management, everyone benefits from knowing who to escalate to without asking. The page does not expose private contact info; only the engineer's published preferred channel.
The roster works on mobile. Open it from a phone, see who is on-call, tap the channel link to open Slack or your phone dialer directly. Critical for incident-side workflows where a non-engineering responder needs to reach engineering quickly.

A pager system is only useful when reachable. The roster page is the contact directory.
