Full Job Description
## Accountabilities Define and lead the evolution of internal infrastructure platforms by turning ambiguous technical challenges into scalable architectural proposals and driving them through RFCs and cross-team alignment. Design and build self-service platform capabilities and APIs (primarily in Go) for provisioning, onboarding, deployment, observability, and operational workflows with strong documentation and clear contracts. Establish and improve delivery standards using Terraform, GitOps (Argo CD), CI/CD pipelines, and progressive deployment strategies to enable safe, repeatable releases. Architect and evolve multi-region, multi-account infrastructure on Kubernetes (EKS), including networking, ingress, traffic routing, and cross-region connectivity. Improve platform reliability and operational maturity through enhanced SLOs, monitoring, alerting, and incident management practices using observability tools such as Grafana. Drive adoption of platform capabilities across engineering teams by ensuring solutions are usable, trusted, and measurably reduce operational friction and dependency on manual support. Participate in on-call rotations while also improving operational health through better alerting, runbooks, and long-term reliability improvements. Requirements: 8+ years of professional software engineering experience in backend, infrastructure, or platform engineering roles. Strong hands-on expertise in Go or similar backend languages, with a focus on system design, testing, reliability, and long-term maintainability. Proven experience building, scaling, and operating production infrastructure or cloud-based platforms. Deep knowledge in at least one of the following areas: Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, networking, reliability engineering, or developer platforms. Strong understanding of Linux systems, networking fundamentals, and production operations at scale. Experience driving cross-team alignment and influencing technical direction through design documen
