WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
We’re looking for a Lead Platform Engineer to help us build out and support Nike’s Kubernetes platform.

WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON
In this role, you will lead the design and development of a Kubernetes-based foundational platform. You will do hands-on development, building custom controllers, REST APIs, and GitOps deployment of CNCF components. And you’ll provide technical coaching to less experienced engineers.
You will adopt, implement, and promote best-in-class design and architecture principles of security, observability, availability, and reliability. Contribute to ways of working, development standards, training, and hiring.
WHO YOU WILL WORK WITH
You'll work closely with other Platform Engineers to deliver technical design and solutions, contributing to the future success of the business through innovations in technology. You will partner with product and engineering leadership to break down epics into stories with clear acceptance criteria. And you’ll document, present, and influence technology solutions to various teams in the organization.
