Staff Software Engineer, Site Reliability & Platform Automation Engineer

Experience: 8–11 years

• Own a functional area end to end, including architecture, implementation, rollout, adoption, operational health, and evolution
• Design and build production software that automates infrastructure and reliability workflows; spend most of your time writing and reviewing software
• For the reliability measurement opening, define and implement SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, burn-rate alerting, observability standards, and a durable evidence store across critical and core services
• For the toil automation opening, build automated workflows for CVE remediation across four realms, EKS and RDS upgrades, third-party provider testing, and recurring infrastructure operations
• Work directly with NA DevOps, IN DevOps, and CloudOps engineers to understand manual workflows before replacing them with reliable, measurable automation
• Build self-service capabilities wherever product engineering teams can safely operate them independently, using guardrails rather than approval gates
• Establish measurement baselines for toil, reliability, adoption, developer experience, and operational cost before changing systems or workflows
• Build golden paths, Terraform modules, policy-as-code controls, and reusable platform components that shift DevOps ownership toward the teams that build and own the services
• Partner with product engineering teams to improve production readiness, observability, incident response, capacity planning, change safety, and operational ownership
• Land adoption across peer engineering and product engineering teams; treat usage, satisfaction, and reduced manual effort as part of delivery

Be Prepared — What You Bring

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful depth in infrastructure, platform, reliability, DevOps, or related systems
• Experience owning a significant production system, including its failure modes, operational cost, reliability, and evolution
• Strong production coding ability in Go, Python, or a comparable language, together with infrastructure-as-code fluency, particularly Terraform
• Deep practical Kubernetes experience, including operating, debugging, and improving real production clusters
• Experience with AWS or GCP, CI/CD systems, distributed systems, and production operations
• Operational judgment demonstrated through on-call experience, incident participation, production troubleshooting, and sound decision-making under pressure
• A track record of replacing recurring manual work with software and explaining the measured improvement before and after automation
• Experience building internal platforms, developer tooling, or reliability capabilities that other engineering teams adopted
• For the reliability measurement opening: experience defining SLIs and SLOs for services owned by other teams and negotiating meaningful targets with service owners
• For the toil automation opening: experience with vulnerability remediation at scale, automated infrastructure upgrades, or test automation for third-party software that you cannot modify

Nice to have

• Policy-as-code experience with Kyverno, OPA, or Gatekeeper
• Observability stack experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Cortex, OpenTelemetry, ELK, Datadog, PagerDuty, or comparable technologies
• CI/CD platform engineering experience, including Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitOps, Argo, or large-scale CI/CD platform migration
• Experience with multi-tenant, multi-region, or regulated environments, including FedRAMP, SOC 2, or ISO-controlled platforms
• Internal developer platform or developer experience work with measurable adoption outcomes
• Experience applying LLM-based or agentic tools to engineering or operational workflows, including human approval and controlled remediation
• Experience with EKS, RDS, PostgreSQL, cloud networking, or disaster recovery testing
