Platform Engineering Manager information

What is a platform engineering manager?

Platform Engineering Managers are technology leaders responsible for overseeing teams that build and maintain the foundational systems and infrastructure used by software development and operations teams. They ensure that platforms are scalable, reliable, and efficient, enabling other engineers to develop, deploy, and operate applications seamlessly. Their role includes managing team members, coordinating with stakeholders, setting technical direction, and ensuring best practices in automation, security, and cloud infrastructure. They often bridge the gap between development and operations to foster a DevOps culture.

How does a platform engineering manager typically collaborate with software development and operations teams?

A Platform Engineering Manager plays a pivotal role in bridging the gap between software development and operations teams. They work closely with developers to understand application requirements and with operations to ensure scalability, reliability, and security of the infrastructure. Regular collaboration includes overseeing the design and implementation of platform tools, facilitating communication during incident responses, and aligning platform capabilities with business needs. This cross-functional teamwork ensures that the platform supports efficient and reliable software delivery across the organization.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a platform engineering manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Platform Engineering Manager, you need a strong background in software engineering, cloud infrastructure, and experience leading technical teams, often supported by a degree in computer science or a related field. Familiarity with tools such as Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms like AWS or Azure, along with certifications such as AWS Certified Solutions Architect, is highly valued. Exceptional leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills help you motivate teams and coordinate complex projects. These skills and qualities are crucial for building robust, scalable platforms and ensuring team alignment with organizational goals.

What is the difference between Platform Engineering Manager vs DevOps Engineer?

Work EnvironmentLeads teams, manages platform development, strategic planningImplements CI/CD pipelines, automates deployment, supports infrastructure
Industry UsageUsed in tech companies, cloud providers, large enterprisesCommon in startups, tech firms, cloud services

The Platform Engineering Manager oversees the development and maintenance of platform infrastructure, focusing on team leadership and strategic planning. In contrast, the DevOps Engineer primarily implements automation, CI/CD pipelines, and supports deployment processes. While both roles require technical expertise and familiarity with cloud and automation tools, the manager has a broader leadership role, whereas the engineer focuses on operational tasks.

Job description

7-Eleven is an iconic family of brands with over 86,000 locations, surpassing every retailer in the world. We revolutionize convenience, restaurants and fuel through cutting edge innovation - working hard to be the customer's first choice. 7-Eleven empowers our employees to "activate awesome" and make a meaningful impact in their stores and communities every day. If you're ready to grow, lead and make a difference, come join our team and help shape the future of convenience.
7-Eleven is looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead the Enterprise Data Platform team.
At 7-Eleven, Enterprise Data is the aggregator of all large-scale datasets across the organization. We operate the Enterprise Data Lakehouse and Analytics Platform on Azure + Databricks (Unity Catalog), producing reports, metrics, and AI/ML-driven insights for users ranging from C-level executives to store managers. The Enterprise Data Platform team owns the infrastructure, governance plumbing, and automation that lets our Data Engineers, Analysts, and Data Scientists move at full speed - and ensures every dollar of our annual platform spend is observable, attributable, and tied back to a data-product owner.
Responsibilities
  • As the Senior Manager of the Data Platform team, you will:
  • Manage day-to-day delivery across multiple Platform Engineering pods building and maintaining the cloud infrastructure and automated processes that power Data Engineering, Analytics, and Machine Learning verticals.
  • Set the multi-year vision for the Data Platform - identifying gaps in the stack, defining a roadmap (Workspace migration, Serverless adoption, CI/CD, AI-assisted SDLC, cost attribution), and positioning EDP to deliver data-product-driven applications at enterprise scale.
  • Partner with Data Architects to design scalable, maintainable, cost-efficient pipelines and shared services - meeting best practices for cloud infrastructure, lakehouse modeling, and analytics engineering.
  • Partner with Data Governance, Privacy, and Compliance leaders to scale the rollout of governed data products - including auditing, lineage, discoverability (Alation), data quality, and privacy controls (e.g., consumer rights handling).
  • Drive cost attribution and chargeback - extend tagging coverage from workspace-level to table/compute/job-level, accelerate Databricks Serverless adoption, and give product owners visibility into their true unit economics.
  • Lead change management for new data initiatives and tools - running presentations, workshops, office hours, and training material to drive adoption across 7-Eleven.
  • Mentor engineers, technical leads, and engineering managers in their personal growth and careers - including cross-coaching with our GSC counterparts.
  • Own the Site Reliability and Support function for the Enterprise Data Platform - incident management, automated observability, ticketing, ITSM, and 24×7 on-call.
Qualifications
  • All qualifications are representative of the experience level we are targeting - you do not need to meet every bullet.
  • 8+ years professional experience as a Software Engineer, Data Engineer, DevOps Engineer, or similar.
  • 5+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Infrastructure.
  • 3+ years in Data Engineering, Data Analytics, or AI/ML.
  • 3+ years managing engineering teams - preferably multiple teams concurrently, including hybrid onshore/offshore (SSC + GSC) models.
  • High proficiency with AI productivity and AI driven automation and agentic workflows
  • Experience owning Incident Response, on-call rotations, knowledge bases, and ITSM tooling.
  • Deep technical knowledge of cloud infrastructure - Azure preferred; AWS or GCP acceptable.
  • Deep knowledge of application and infrastructure observability - logging, monitoring, alerting, and automated incident tracking.
  • Strong knowledge of Data Engineering and Analytics fundamentals - data modeling, ELT/ETL pipeline design, distributed compute (Spark/Databricks).
  • Strong knowledge of deploying AI/ML in production - feature engineering, model selection, deployment, and ML-Ops.
  • Strong communication and storytelling skills - able to translate engineering progress into executive narratives and bubble information up to senior leaders.
  • Strong project- and time-management skills - comfortable producing PM artifacts (roadmaps, Gantt charts, process diagrams, status reporting) for active engineering programs.
