Staff Engineer - DevOps
Platform Architecture & Delivery
Design, implement, and scale a self-service CI/CD platform that supports secure, reliable, and repeatable software delivery across engineering.
Standardize and evolve enterprise CI/CD workflows and multi-cluster GitOps delivery patterns using tools such as CircleCI and ArgoCD.
Build reusable pipeline templates, automation, and internal tooling that abstract infrastructure complexity for product developers and improve developer experience.
Cloud Infrastructure & Kubernetes
Build and manage production-grade AWS EKS infrastructure across resilient multi-region and multi-cluster environments.
Optimize cluster efficiency, workload scheduling, and autoscaling using tools and patterns such as Karpenter.
Support secure, healthy, and highly available container platforms used by engineering teams across the organization.
Service Mesh, Security & Reliability
Architect and support service mesh patterns that regulate traffic, enforce secure service-to-service communication, and enable safe rollout strategies such as canary deployments and circuit breaking.
Implement strong Kubernetes security controls, including IAM Roles for Service Accounts, Network Policies, and policy-driven validation approaches.
Build with resilience, observability, performance, and cost-efficiency as core principles across all platform initiatives.
Engineering Partnership & Technical Leadership
Partner closely with engineering teams to provide platform guidance, troubleshoot complex distributed systems issues, and improve delivery workflows.
Mentor DevOps engineers, contribute to architectural reviews, and maintain an active hands-on role in infrastructure as code and system automation.
