Responsibilities:

· Serve as a **liaison** between platform engineering and stakeholders (security, compliance, infra, app teams, leadership)

· Translate technical concepts into **clear roadmaps** and justifications

· Manage the **platform roadmap**, backlog, and priorities

· Document **use cases, requirements, and goals** for platform features

· Drive **adoption** of tools like Red Hat Developer Hub (Backstage) and workload scaffolding

· Coordinate **buy-in** and approvals for platform enhancements

· Ensure **documentation, onboarding, and internal marketing** are clear and up to date

· Lead or contribute to demos, reviews, and planning sessions

Skills Required:

· Familiarity with **cloud-native infrastructure** (any cloud provider, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Terraform, GitOps, identity management)

· Strong understanding of **Agile methodologies** and experience using **Jira** (or similar tools)

· Ability to communicate **technical concepts** to both technical and non-technical audiences

· Experience working with **platform engineering teams** or developer portals

Skills Preferred:

· Experience writing user documentation, onboarding guides, or internal wikis

· Experience managing cross-team collaboration and approvals

· Understanding of developer experience needs and internal advocacy

Experience Required:

· Familiarity with **cloud-native infrastructure** (any cloud provider, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Terraform, GitOps, identity management)

· Experience working with **platform teams** or internal developer platforms

· Comfortable in **code-centric environments** (e.g., markdown docs, pipelines, GitHub)

· Experience with **Entra ID**, **GitHub APIs**, **Tekton**, **Red Hat OpenShift**, or hybrid cloud workloads

· Prior hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure, scripting, or API development (e.g., Go, Python, YAML, Terraform)
