Staff DevOps & Platform Engineer

Our requirements

• 8+ years of experience in platform and DevOps engineering.
• 6+ years of enterprise-scale Kubernetes administration.
• Strong programming proficiency in Go and Python.
• Mastery of modular Terraform, OpenTofu, or Pulumi.
• Production experience designing OpenTelemetry collector topologies.
• Proven track record building deterministic, idempotent workflows with state-machine frameworks.
• Demonstrated track record of authoring cross-team RFCs and establishing operational SLOs/SLIs.
• Direct experience integrating LLM tool-calling, agentic triage workflows, or RAG-based runbook retrieval into incident response loops.

Your responsibilities

• Define the technical roadmap for self-service platform engineering, zero-trust cloud security, and distributed observability across multi-cloud environments.
• Measure and optimize internal developer velocity, reducing onboarding time, build bottlenecks, and time-to-first-commit across all product squads.
• Establish engineering standards for Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD, and telemetry; mentor senior and mid-level engineers through architecture reviews and RFCs.
• Partner with Engineering leadership to establish strict SLO/SLI governance, error budget policies, and automated chaos testing across distributed services.
• Design and standardize self-service developer portals and golden deployment paths, enabling product teams to provision secure, ephemeral environments independently.
• Architect multi-cluster, multi-region declarative delivery models using ArgoCD or Flux CD.
• Build closed-loop self-healing systems combining OpenTelemetry, topological anomaly correlation, and stateful orchestration engines.
• Implement zero-trust security guardrails across the delivery lifecycle using Kyverno or Open Policy Agent (OPA).
• Lead the design and scaling of inference and training infrastructure, including GPU cluster autoscaling and vector database hosting.
• Architect fault-tolerant failovers, active-active multi-region traffic routing, and automated chaos engineering experiments.
