Job Description

• Build and evolve the Internal Developer Platform with Backstage—service catalog, golden-path templates, scorecards, and self-service scaffolding to standardize app onboarding.
• Engineer CI/CD at scale using Jenkins and GitHub Actions—pipelines-as-code, environment promotion, secrets management, and artifact provenance.
• Orchestrate batch/data workflows with Argo Workflows (not CI/CD)—multi-tenant DAGs, resource quotas, artifact/versioning strategy, and guardrails.
• Operate and tune stateful services—Kafka, CockroachDB (Postgres), Couchbase, Elasticsearch—including capacity planning, replication, backup/restore, and DR.
• Establish end-to-end observability—Prometheus metrics, Grafana dashboards, Grafana Tempo tracing, SLOs/error budgets, actionable alerting, and on-call runbooks.
• Build platform tooling & automation in Go, Node.js, and C#/.NET—CLIs, controllers/operators, APIs, and integrations that improve developer experience.
• Drive security, compliance, and reliability practices—image/signing & SBOMs, secrets management, network policies, least privilege, cost monitoring, incident response, and postmortems.
