• Proven ability to design and deliver platform features that serve internal customers or developer teams 
• Experience building developer-facing platforms or internal developer portals (e.g. Custom workflow tooling). 

Key Responsibilities: 

• Build and extend platform capabilities to enable different classes of workloads (e.g., Large-scale AI training, inferencing etc). 
• Design and operate scalable orchestration systems using Kubernetes across both on-prem and multi-cloud environments. 
• Develop platform features such as pre-flight health checks, job status monitoring and post-mortem analysis.
