About the Role

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our Platform – Cloud Team.
The group responsible for designing, building, and evolving the data, application, and infrastructure platform that powers everything from day-to-day development to production-grade AI workloads at scale.
 

In this role, you’ll design and implement cloud infrastructure that supports 10x customer growth alongside a rapidly expanding engineering organization. You’ll define platform engineering standards and lead cross-functional efforts to improve developer experience, scalability, system reliability, and security.
You’ll also play a key role in mentoring engineers, shaping engineering culture, and scaling platform capabilities across teams and environments.

This is a strategic position - ideal for someone excited about building platform-as-a-product solutions, balancing short-term needs with a long-term infrastructure vision, and collaborating across the company to enable high-velocity engineering.

What You’ll Do

• Design and implement scalable, secure, and reliable infrastructure platforms in AWS and/or multi-cloud environments.

• Drive the architecture and roadmap for cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes-based platforms, and developer tooling across the org.

• Build and evolve internal developer platforms (IDPs) to abstract infrastructure complexity and promote autonomy, safety, and velocity for product teams.

• Define and enforce best practices for infrastructure, CI/CD, security, and observability, ensuring consistency and compliance at scale.

• Act as a technical mentor and thought leader, supporting and leveling up DevOps and backend engineers across the R&D organization.

• Collaborate with Engineering, Data, and Security teams on cross-cutting initiatives, such as cloud governance, policy automation, zero-trust networking, and FinOps.

• Drive incident management and postmortem processes; lead efforts to harden infrastructure and reduce MTTR.

• Standardize and manage Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Crossplane, or Pulumi) across environments.

• Champion SRE and DevSecOps principles, introducing automation, guardrails, and developer-first tooling wherever possible.

• Evaluate and implement emerging technologies and practices to improve platform capabilities, resilience, and cost efficiency.

About You

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering roles, preferably in a high-scale cloud-native environment.

• Deep expertise in cloud infrastructure design and AWS core services (multi-cloud experience a plus).

• Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including managing clusters, operators, and workload orchestration at scale.

• Expertise with Infrastructure as Code tools and methodologies (Terraform, Terragrunt, Crossplane, etc.).

• Solid programming/scripting ability in languages such as Python, Go, JS and so.

• Passion for building high-impact tooling, improving developer workflows, and enabling teams through “Platformic” Solutions such as IDP/Self-Services.

• Familiarity with modern observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, OpenSearch).

• Excellent communicator with a proven ability to work cross-functionally, influence decisions, and drive org-wide adoption of platform solutions.

• Experience mentoring engineers and collaborating on long-term technical direction.

• B.Sc in Computer Science or related field – an advantage.
