Platform Engineering Lead – Building Zoop’s Next-Gen Infrastructure

Location: Pune, India

Experience: 6+ years

Why this role exists

Zoop is entering its scale-up phase — where speed alone is not enough. We are looking for a Platform Engineering Lead who has already helped companies move from quick growth to

stable, secure, and cost-efficient scale, and can do the same for Zoop.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering velocity, security, reliability, and cost

discipline. You will help Zoop evolve from strong DevOps foundations into a mature

platform-led organization.

What success looks like

● Engineering teams ship faster with confidence and guardrails

● Cloud cost, security, and reliability are predictable, visible, and managed

● CI/CD is trusted, enforced, and production-ready

● Platform decisions reduce cognitive load instead of adding process

Scope & Expectations

● This is a hands-on leadership role (architecture + implementation)

● You will build, not just review

● You will own the platform roadmap, not just infrastructure tickets





● You will work as a force multiplier for product engineering teams—not a bottleneck

Key Responsibilities

Platform & Cloud Architecture

● Build and evolve Zoop’s Internal Developer Platform (IDP) with:

● Self-service environments

● Golden paths / paved roads

● Standardized templates and guardrails

● Lead Kubernetes and cloud-native adoption at scale

● Drive infrastructure automation using Terraform, Pulumi or similar IaC tools

CI/CD, Reliability & Dev Experience

● Establish strong CI/CD practices with quality gates and production readiness

● Drive adoption of testing, automation, and safer deployment practices

● Define and track golden signals, SLIs/SLOs, and incident response processes

● Reduce operational toil and improve developer productivity

● Make observ
