What is the work?
- Build, operate, and manage the lifecycle of a geographically distributed fleet of Kubernetes clusters supporting core business functions across on-prem, public cloud, and edge locations.
- Develop platform capabilities and automation that simplify cluster provisioning, upgrades, configuration, security hardening, workload management, and day-2 operations at scale.
- Leverage AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity, accelerate troubleshooting, and enhance platform automation.
- Apply Test-Driven Development and Behavior-Driven Development practices where appropriate to improve software quality and reliability.
- Implement and continuously improve security controls, encryption standards, secrets management, audit logging, and compliance-aligned policies supporting production workloads, including PCI and HIPAA requirements.
- Define and measure SLIs/SLOs, establish effective monitoring and observability, evaluate cluster and platform health, optimize resource utilization, and drive performance and reliability improvements.
- Identify opportunities to improve platform resilience, scalability, supportability, and developer experience through automation and data-driven decision-making.
- Work independently on complex technology initiatives with limited guidance while demonstrating ownership and accountability for outcomes.
- Lead and mentor engineers in coding, configuration, testing, debugging, troubleshooting, and platform engineering practices.
- Evaluate technical designs and recommend solutions that balance reliability, security, scalability, operational complexity, and business needs.
- Anticipate and communicate technical risks, blockers, dependencies, delays, and operational impacts before they require escalation.
- Collaborate across engineering, infrastructure, networking, security, application, and business teams to resolve issues and deliver capabilities that span multiple technology domains.
- Maintain clear technical documentation, architecture diagrams, operational runbooks, and workflow definitions, and foster a culture of documentation and knowledge sharing.
- Recommend and drive improvements to engineering processes, standards, and tooling that increase team effectiveness and align with organizational and company goals.
- Contribute to platform strategy and roadmap development by identifying gaps, evaluating emerging technologies, and proposing enhancements that improve the platform and the teams that depend on it.
