How your role will look like:

Shape platform strategy and turn approved decisions into architecture, service interfaces,technical standards and a clear delivery order. Lead major initiatives and migrations across team boundaries. Own build-versus-buy analysis and make the technical call, escalating decisions that would change platform strategy to the Head of Application Platform. Design and build platform capabilities and automation, including integrations over managed services, our AWS EKS compute platform, and the shared software-delivery path. Turn recurring developer needs into secure, reliable APIs and self-service workflows, including machine-usable interfaces for AI agents. Set and improve standards for reliability, observability, security, maintainability, and performance. Strengthen incident learning and disaster recovery, and share on-call with the engineers who build the platform. Work with product teams to test whether shared capabilities meet their needs. Explain platform decisions in technical discussions and mentor engineers across career levels.

What you need to succeed:

You have worked as a product engineer, building and operating production services end to end,and want to apply that experience to platforms used by other engineers. You build production software in Go, TypeScript or Python and can work across unfamiliar codebases. You have designed, built, debugged, and operated services on AWS and Kubernetes, including EKS or a comparable Kubernetes environment. You can automate infrastructure and software delivery through infrastructure as code, CI/CD, automated testing, and safe rollout and recovery practices. We use AWS CDK; experience with Terraform or Pulumi is equally relevant. You can turn developer needs into secure, reliable APIs, automation, and self-service workflows,and have helped teams adopt shared capabilities. You have led technical work with no established approach, made architecture and build-versus- buy decisions, and aligned people without formal authority. You communicate trade-offs clearly and mentor engineers across career levels. Your SRE experience covers observability, SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, incident learning and recovery. You are willing to join the shared on-call rotation after onboarding. Experience leveraging AI tools to drive problem-solving and productivity, maintaining effective human oversight and judgement. We aim to further enhance the diversity of our company and support the professional development of people with disabilities. We have a disability representative who will assist you throughout the application process. If you require this support, please let us know in advance.
