Senior Engineer, Platform Infrastructure (R5516)
Job description
We build and operate the platform that our engineers and our customers rely on.
The platform isn't a product that's ever "finished." It's something we improve continuously. Every deployment, outage, bug, and annoying manual task is an opportunity to make the system better.
An L3 Platform Engineer is a fully contributing member of that effort.
This isn't a ticket factory. We expect engineers to think critically, collaborate closely, and continuously improve both the platform and the way we build it.
Our engineering culture is built on Extreme Programming and Continuous Delivery.
If you're looking for a role where you're handed tickets, disappear for a week, and come back with a pull request,…
Job responsibilities
- Build and improve the platform that deploys and operates customer environments.
- Develop infrastructure as code using Ansible, Terraform, Helm, Zarf, Big Bang, Packer, and related tooling.
- Improve Kubernetes platforms and the systems around them.
- Build deployment automation that reduces risk and removes manual work.
- Pair with other engineers to design, implement, and troubleshoot platform capabilities.
- Write automated tests for infrastructure and deployment workflows.
- Improve observability, reliability, security, and recoverability.
- Write documentation that explains why something exists—not just how to type commands.
