Platform Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain the internal developer platform that enables our engineering organization to ship software reliably and at scale.
• Own the full platform lifecycle — from infrastructure provisioning and Git Ops delivery pipelines to observability and developer experience — working across our multi‑cloud environments.
• Design, provision, and maintain cloud infrastructure across Azure, AWS, and GCP using infrastructure‑as‑code tooling (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi, Cloud Formation).
• Manage Terraform Cloud work spaces, module registries, and policy frameworks (Sentinel / OPA) to enforce governance at scale.
• Architect and operate Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers, including node pool management, autoscaling, networking (CNI/service mesh), and storage.
• Define and manage cloud landing zones, account structures, networking baselines, and identity/access frameworks aligned to security standards.
• Operate and evolve Git Ops delivery pipelines using Flux to manage cluster state, Helm releases, and environment promotions from a single source of truth in version control (e.g., Git Hub).
• Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines with pipeline‑as‑code tooling (e.g., Harness, Git Hub Actions) covering build, test, security scanning, and deployment workflows.
• Champion Git Ops best practices across engineering teams, providing templates, documentation, and enablement.
• Implement and maintain full‑stack observability using platforms such as Dynatrace, including distributed tracing, infrastructure monitoring, log management, synthetic monitoring, and SLO/SLI tracking.
• Define alerting strategies, runbooks, and on‑call escalation paths; drive incident response and post‑incident reviews.
• Establish and track platform reliability metrics (availability, error rate, latency) and lead initiatives to close gaps.
• Build and maintain internal developer platform capabilities: self‑service tooling, golden‑path templates, shared libraries, and developer portals.
• Reduce cognitive load for application teams by abstracting infrastructure complexity behind opinionated, well‑documented interfaces.
• Collaborate closely with security, networking, and application engineering teams to align on standards and integrate platform capabilities into the SDLC.
• Embed security controls into platform tooling: secrets management, image signing, policy enforcement, RBAC, and audit logging.
• Support compliance requirements (SOC 2, PCI‑DSS, etc.) through infrastructure controls, audit trails, and documentation.

• 5+ years of experience in a platform engineering, Dev Ops, or site reliability engineering role.
• Strong hands‑on experience with Kubernetes in production across at least one major cloud provider (Azure AKS, AWS EKS, or GCP GKE).
• Proficiency with infrastructure‑as‑code tools, especially Terraform and Terraform Cloud (work spaces, remote state, module registry, policy as code).
• Demonstrated experience with Git Ops principles and continuous delivery tooling (e.g., Flux, ArgoCD, or equivalent).
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Harness, Git Hub Actions, Jenkins, or equivalent platforms.
• Working knowledge of multi‑cloud architectures across two or more of:
  Azure, AWS, GCP.
• Proficiency with at least one scripting/programming language (Python, Go, Bash) for automation and tooling development.
• Experience with observability platforms (e.g., Dynatrace, Datadog, Prometheus/Grafana stack) and a solid understanding of the three pillars of observability.
• Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (DNS, TLS, load balancing, VPNs, VPC/VNet peering).
• Familiarity with security concepts: RBAC, secrets management (Vault, cloud‑native KMS), image signing, and supply‑chain security.
• Comfortable working with container image registries, Helm charts, and Kubernetes manifests.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document complex systems clearly.
