•    Collaborate with Technical Analysts, Infrastructure Engineers, and application teams to ensure solutions integrate effectively with the platform and comply with engineering standards.

•    Contribute to the definition and evaluation of functional and non-functional requirements for platform services, including security, scalability, performance, and resilience.

•    Leverage AI/ML services to accelerate platform development, including enhancing automation, improving developer experience, and enabling intelligent tooling and workflows.

•    Develop and maintain Python-based automation and tooling (e.g. AWS Lambda-based workflows) to support platform capabilities and reduce manual operational effort.

•    Contribute to building event-driven and serverless platform components using  services to improve scalability and responsiveness.

•    Support implementation of secure and scalable network architectures, ensuring alignment with cloud security and regulatory requirements.

•    Act as a subject matter contributor within  Terraform, and platform engineering practices, supporting internal teams adopting platform capabilities.

•    Contribute to observability and operational excellence, including monitoring, alerting, and continuous improvement of platform reliability and resilience.

•    Promote an inclusive and healthy working environment and help to resolve organizational impediments/blockers.
