Platform Engineer

Responsibilities

• Build and operate shared Azure infrastructure for teams to consume, including hosting with Container Apps, private networking, managed identity, OIDC trust federation, and secrets-free CI/CD pipelines within the organization’s governed Azure environment.
• Develop and maintain self-service and auto-provisioning tooling so teams can quickly go from a new repository to a live, governed, service.
• Build and operate the core, shared infrastructure that teams would otherwise rebuild for every project. Examples include an API gateway, a service catalog, and service discovery, reducing the cognitive load and time teams spend on undifferentiated work.
• Enable core capabilities to be discoverable and consumable by both engineers and AI agents.
• Embed security from day one: private ingress, least-privilege IAM, and security scanning. Maintain audit trails aligned to NERC CIP, OCED, and SOX ITGC requirements.
• Work directly with teams across the organization to understand what they're building, identify where the platform is creating friction, and iterate on it.
• Track time-to-deploy, adoption, cost attribution, and code review patterns, treating them as feedback signals, not reporting artifacts.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science (or equivalent experience).
• 3–6+ years of experience in software development, platform engineering, or cloud engineering.
• Writing and deploying infrastructure as code in an automated manner.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and secrets-free authentication patterns (OIDC, managed identity, workload identity federation).
• Able to design systems with a security-first mindset: private ingress, least-privilege IAM, no long-lived credentials.
• Writing and consuming APIs.
• Leveraging AI Tools such as Claude Code to enhance productivity.
• Strong written and verbal communication.
