Role & responsibilities

- Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and reliable internal developer platforms that improve engineering productivity and delivery speed.
- Develop and manage cloud infrastructure across AWS, Azure, or GCP using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform.
- Build, maintain, and optimize Kubernetes clusters, containerized workloads, and orchestration environments.
- Implement and manage CI/CD pipelines, GitOps workflows, and automated deployment processes using tools such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Argo CD, or Flux CD.
- Develop self-service infrastructure capabilities, reusable platform components, templates, and workflows to enable development teams to provision and deploy applications independently.
- Establish and maintain Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) and developer portals using tools such as Backstage.
- Implement observability solutions, including centralized logging, metrics, distributed tracing, dashboards, and alerting.
- Integrate security controls, secrets management, identity and access management, vulnerability scanning, and compliance checks into platform workflows.
- Improve platform reliability, availability, scalability, performance, and resilience through automation and proactive monitoring.
- Optimize cloud resource utilization and infrastructure costs through capacity planning, performance analysis, and FinOps practices.
- Troubleshoot complex infrastructure, networking, deployment, and production issues in collaboration with application engineering and SRE teams.
- Establish platform engineering standards, reusable architectural patterns, documentation, and operational best practices.
- Evaluate emerging technologies and tools to improve developer experience, infrastructure automation, and platform capabilities.
- Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver platform initiatives.




- Measure platform effectiveness using metrics such as deployment frequency, lead time, platform adoption, service reliability, and developer productivity
