Job description

Job Description - Design, build, and operate a secure and reliable internal platform for running business applications and machine learning workloads at scale. - Develop and maintain self-service capabilities (golden paths) for provisioning infrastructure, deploying workloads, and managing the application lifecycle through standardized APIs, templates, and automation. - Build and evolve reusable platform primitives such as K8s clusters, ingress, service networking, secrets management, policy controls, and identity integration. - Maintain cloud and platform infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi, Crossplane) in a secure, scalable, and reusable manner, including modular design, versioning, policy guardrails, automated validation, and safe rollout practices. - Implement and maintain platform-level CI/CD patterns that support multiple teams while enforcing secure and compliant SDLC practices. - Provide opinionated reference architectures and reusable building blocks (e.g., Helm charts, Argo CD apps, Terraform modules, scaffolding tools) that enable consistent delivery. - Implement guardrails for security and compliance (policy-as-code, least privilege, workload identity, image provenance, runtime controls) while maintaining developer velocity. - Own platform observability by establishing monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, and SLO practices to keep the developer platform stable and measurable. - Drive platform reliability and operational excellence through incident response, root cause analysis, postmortems, and continuous improvement to reduce toil. - Support daily operations, monitoring, and security functions of the platform stack, including routine maintenance, access and identity workflows, vulnerability remediation, and operational support for internal platform services. - Partner closely with application teams and stakeholders to understand friction points, prioritize the platform roadmap, and deliver measurable improvements in developer experience and time-to-production. - Lead through influence and consensus, providing technical guidance, reviews, and mentorship to peers and junior engineers. - Own your professional development, continuously learning new technologies and domain context to operate as a subject matter expert (SME). Qualifications - Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field. - Hands-on experience designing and operating platform services using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, Crossplane, or CSP-native tooling) with a modular, reusable approach. - Strong experience with K8s or OpenShift and core platform components, including networking, ingress, service discovery, storage, RBAC, admission control, and multi-tenancy. - Experience implementing and standardizing CI/CD for multi-team environments, ideally with GitHub Actions and Argo CD, including release strategies and deployment automation. - Experience with at least one major Cloud Service Provider such as Azure, GCP, or AWS. - Strong networking fundamentals, including DNS, TLS, load balancing, routing, and private connectivity. - Strong security foundations across identity, application, data, network, and supply-chain security, including scanning, signing, SBOM, secrets handling, and policy enforcement. - Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building internal tooling and automation, ideally in Go, Python, or TypeScript. - Experience with containers and container tooling, including Docker, registries, and image build pipelines. - Excellent knowledge of Linux operating systems and operational troubleshooting. - Proven experience leading incident response, including triage, mitigation, coordination across teams, and driving post-incident improvements. - Deep knowledge of observability tooling and practices, such as Prometheus, Grafana, and Datadog. - Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities, with excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
