Try to go with the flow. Learn how the team works internally.

Be careful with PROD environment.
Always know your reporting structure and people you need to loop in.

If you are not sure of something, ask inputs from at least 2-3 knowledgeable people in the project.

Initial 3 months will be challenging but after that you would learn to handle everything.

Its not as difficult as it seems.
