The role involves developing internal platform tooling, automation, and self-service solutions to reduce cognitive load for developers and improve productivity.

  • Tooling & Automation: Develop internal platform tooling, automation, and self‑service capabilities, while maintaining CI/CD pipelines and observability across cloud operations.
  • Collaboration & Productivity: Partner with development teams to deliver platform solutions and drive initiatives that enhance developer productivity through AI‑assisted engineering workflows.

Technical Skills & Expertise:

  • 6+  years of experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, or SRE roles.
  • Extensive hands-on experience with AWS and cloud-native architecture.
  • Deep expertise in Kubernetes (designing, deploying, and operating production environments).
  • Strong experience with GitOps practices and tools.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar).
  • Experience developing automation scripts and platform tools.
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, observability, reliability, and cloud operations.
  • Experience building scalable, reusable infrastructure components.
  • Demonstrated interest and experience in AI-assisted engineering workflows (must be stated in CV).

Soft Skills:

  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging skills.
  • Clear communication and ability to work effectively with developers, product teams, and stakeholders.
  • Proactive, independent, and comfortable driving technical initiatives forward.
  • Pragmatic, humble, collaborative, and receptive to different perspectives.
  • Product mindset: viewing the platform as a product and developers as its users.
