Senior Platform Engineer, Infrastructure

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and operate foundational cloud infrastructure that is rolled out across the enterprise, owning significant systems end to end.
• Build and operate the foundational multi-cloud environment, including the account structure, guardrails, and shared networking and identity that every team builds on top of.
• Build the self-service experience for how engineering teams provision accounts, bootstrap resources, and deploy onto paved roads, so teams can move quickly while staying inside a governed, secure foundation.
• Author and maintain reusable infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform) that other teams build on.
• Contribute to CI/CD, testing, and deployment standards that scale across the enterprise rather than any single product, and help drive their adoption.
• Build the self-service tooling and paved-road patterns that let engineering teams provision, deploy, and operate their own systems without depending on a central queue.
• Contribute to technical evaluation and selection of cloud services, infrastructure tooling, and platforms, helping inform build-vs-buy decisions based on capability, compliance requirements, and speed to value.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to more junior engineers through code review, design discussion, and pairing.
• Partner with engineering, security, and IT teams to ensure infrastructure meets government security and compliance requirements across data classification levels.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery.

Qualifications

• Typically 5+ years of software engineering, DevOps, SRE, or cloud engineering experience building and shipping production systems, with demonstrated ability to work independently and deliver complex projects with minimal guidance.
• Strong general software background, with real experience building, deploying, and operating production applications on cloud.
• You understand a professional software development lifecycle, including how applications are built, tested, released, and run in production. You understand what constitutes maintainable code.
• Solid experience designing and operating cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including deploying and running production workloads.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform), authoring reusable modules and infrastructure that other engineers depend on and build on top of.
• Experience with modern CI/CD, continuous testing, and deployment practices.
• Able to work across a broad technical surface area, moving between infrastructure, application development, and platform work as priorities require. Depth in one or more of: CI/CD and build/release tooling, cloud networking, infrastructure-as-code, or developer platforms and shared engineering tooling, with working familiarity across the rest.
• A trusted technical contributor on your team who owns systems end to end, brings strong design judgment, and leads and mentors more junior engineers.
• Effective communication skills and the ability to work across teams to understand requirements and align on solutions.
• Comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift and the playbook is being written in real time.
• Able to work through ambiguity to define requirements and deliver results.

Preferred Skills And Experience

• Enterprise experience building and operating infrastructure at scale in a high-growth or large technology organization.
• Experience with containers and orchestration, service mesh, and artifact/registry management.
• Experience designing and improving the developer experience, or building and maintaining the core developer processes and automation that engineering teams rely on.
• Familiarity with government cloud environments (AWS GovCloud, Azure Government) and authorization frameworks (FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, IL4/IL5).
• Experience deploying infrastructure in government, defense, or regulated environments with security and compliance constraints.
• Experience designing or maintaining an enterprise network.
• Experience with observability, reliability engineering, IAM/secrets management.
• Experience using AI-powered development tools to deliver production code and automate routine work.
• Background in developer tooling, platform engineering, or internal platform teams at high-growth technology companies.
