Engineering Systems Engineer

Overview

The Engineering Systems Engineer is the hands‑on technical operator at the center of how the Engineering organization’s tools, platforms, and standards work every day. This individual contributor owns the administration, configuration, governance, and continuous improvement of the systems that every engineer in the organization depends on — from Azure Dev Ops pipelines and project structures, to Launch Darkly feature flag operations, to Flyway database migration standards, to the AI‑assisted development tools like Cursor and Claude Code that are reshaping how software is built.

The Engineering Systems Engineer is a proactive platform operator who identifies configuration drift before it causes problems, closes adoption gaps before they become patterns, and automates manual administration work before it accumulates into toil. They leverage AI throughout their own workflow — using it to accelerate platform analysis, generate automation scripts, produce enablement documentation, and surface insights from tooling data that would take hours to find manually.

Starting base pay for this role is between $100,000 and $122,000. The actual base pay is dependent upon many factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs, training, location, and market demands. The base pay range is subject to change and may be modified in the future. This role will be eligible for a bonus as well as competitive medical, dental, and vision benefits, wellness reimbursement, life insurance, and a 401(k) with company match.

We offer vacation and sick leave benefits (under a flexible time off policy in most states).

Azure Dev Ops Administration & Governance

• Owns day‑to‑day administration of Azure Dev Ops across the Engineering organization — managing organizations, projects, teams, repositories, pipelines, boards, area paths, iteration cadences, and access controls with the consistency, precision, and configuration hygiene that a multi‑team Engineering organization depends on.
• Manages Azure Dev Ops user provisioning, permission models, and access reviews — ensuring access is scoped to least‑privilege principles, regularly audited, promptly revoked when no longer needed, and documented to support compliance evidence requirements.
• Monitors Azure Dev Ops platform health, usage patterns, and adoption metrics — proactively identifying configuration drift, underutilized capabilities, permission anomalies, and opportunities to improve how Engineering teams use the platform before those gaps create friction or risk.
• Serves as the escalation point for Azure Dev Ops configuration issues — diagnosing platform‑level incidents, working with Microsoft support when required, and resolving disruptions with the urgency that a platform used by every engineer in the organization demands.
• Leverages AI tools to accelerate platform analysis and administration work — including AI‑assisted pipeline configuration review, AI‑generated access audit summaries, and LLM‑assisted platform documentation that keeps configuration records current without proportional manual overhead.

Launch Darkly Administration & Feature Flag Governance

• Owns the administration and governance of Launch Darkly across the engineering organization — managing projects, environments, user roles, access controls, SDK integrations, API configurations, and webhook connections with operational discipline and consistent configuration standards.
• Administers flag lifecycle governance — applying and enforcing the flag creation policies, naming conventions, targeting rules, retirement processes, and cleanup standards defined by the Engineering Systems Manager, and proactively identifying flags that are stale, misconfigured, or creating…
