TL;DR · Senior Developer Platform Engineer

The Sr. Developer Platform Engineer joins the team to enhance the Developer Inner Loop by maintaining platform capabilities and implementing AI-powered tooling. This role focuses on improving developer productivity across local development, CI/CD pipelines, testing infrastructure, and release workflows. You will build and maintain standardized pipelines, support ephemeral environments, and drive automation for build and deployment tasks. Key responsibilities include implementing shift-left quality goals, integrating AI-based tools for debugging and code quality, and resolving platform performance bottlenecks. Required technical skills include microservices deployment on Kubernetes across AWS, GCP, and Azure, as well as experience with GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitOps, ArgoCD, and build tools like Gradle or Bazel. You will solve the business problem of reducing friction in the software delivery lifecycle.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain standardized CI/CD pipelines and developer workflows based on defined architecture.
  • Implement enhancements to the software delivery lifecycle to reduce friction for product engineering teams.
  • Integrate AI-based tools and workflows into the developer experience to automate routine engineering tasks.
  • Build and maintain automated testing frameworks and infrastructure to support shift-left quality goals.
  • Support the adoption of ephemeral environments and streamlined local development tooling.
  • Develop scripts and lightweight tooling to automate platform capabilities and workflows.
  • Identify and resolve bottlenecks in developer workflows and platform performance.
  • Support data collection for developer productivity and platform performance metrics.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in progressively complex software engineering roles.
  • Proven experience implementing platform, infrastructure, or developer tooling solutions.
  • Experience in end-to-end delivery of internal engineering systems from discovery to rollout (preferred).
  • Expertise in scoping and delegating work to teammates (preferred).
  • Experience with microservices deployment on Kubernetes across AWS, GCP, or Azure (preferred).
  • Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins (preferred).
  • Experience with GitOps, ArgoCD, and local dev/build tooling like Gradle or Bazel (preferred).
  • Export controls.
