  • Experience building and operating internal developer platforms that improve engineering productivity, standardize delivery patterns, and reduce operational toil.
  • Deep background in modern cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure), container orchestration (Kubernetes), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi), and CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, GitLab CI).
  • System Design: Proven track record in designing, scaling, and maintaining distributed systems with high availability requirements.
  • Observability: Experience implementing comprehensive monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting frameworks (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry)
  • Experience surveying developer teams to identify friction points, prioritize platform improvements, and translate feedback into self-service capabilities that improve developer productivity.
  • Deep experience with platform engineering and SRE practices and frameworks
  • Programming proficiency of various languages (e.g., Java, C#, Python, Go, Rust)
  • Knowledge of secure SDLC practices and methodologies.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and senior stakeholders.
