Senior / Principal Platform Engineer *Multi-Cloud Infrastructure
• Kubernetes
• Zero Trust
• Agentic Platform Development* Role mission | Design, code, secure and evolve cloud-native platforms across Azure, GCP, AWS and hybrid environments. Build platform capabilities with Terraform, Kubernetes, GitOps and software engineeringand actively advance agentic platform development, from AI-assisted design and code creation to reusable agents and tool-integrated engineering workflows. Security, compliance and operational rigor are integral to delivery. Thrive in a fast-paced, startup-like engineering environment with rapid delivery, high ownership, hands-on problem solving and disciplined production quality. What you will build
- Design and implement reusable Terraform modules, cloud landing-zone components, provisioning and lifecycle workflows across Azure, GCP and AWS; engineer resilient multi-region and dedicated-instance patterns.
- Build and maintain production Kubernetes foundations: clusters, node pools, networking, autoscaling, storage, workload identity, capacity, upgrades and recovery.
- Develop GitOps delivery platforms using Argo CD, Helm, GitHub Actions and automated validation, promotion, rollback and drift detection.
- Use and extend agentic development workflows across the full engineering lifecyclearchitecture exploration, Terraform/Helm authoring, code reviews, automated tests, environment validation, pull requests and release readinessnot only production diagnosis and remediation. Required experience
- 8+ years in software, cloud, DevOps/SRE or platform engineering, with substantial hands-on design and implementation.




- Advanced Terraform and Kubernetes skills; production experience with Argo CD, GitOps, Helm and CI/CD.
- Deep experience with Azure plus GCP or AWS; ability to transfer architecture patterns across cloud providers.
- Strong Linux, networking, DNS, TLS, PKI, routing, firewall, IAM/RBAC and distributed-system troubleshooting.
- Hands-on with several platform components such as Istio, Keycloak, cert-manager, API gateways and secrets management, with ability to learn the others.
- Practical deployment, scaling, hardening and operational troubleshooting of Kafka, Redis and relational/document databases in Kubernetes or managed cloud services; experience with API gateways and secure API exposure.
- Hands-on experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Thanos, Grafana Alloy or equivalent metrics/logging pipelines, including cardinality, retention, alert quality and production troubleshooting.
- Demonstrated experience implementing security controls in regulated environments and supporting FedRAMP, PCI DSS, SOC 2 or comparably rigorous programs.
- Coding ability in Python, Go or equivalent; evidence of shipping automation and reusable engineering components.
- Ability to reason from application behavior through cluster, identity, certificate, network and cloud dependencies.




- Demonstrated ownership in a fast-paced, startup-like environment: rapid iteration, shifting priorities, independently driving work to production and balancing speed with security and reliability. Preferred
- Multi-tenant or customer-dedicated SaaS, hybrid/air-gapped architectures, Kubernetes operators/CRDs, cloud cost management.
- Compliance-as-code, automated audit evidence, policy engines, vulnerability scanning and supply-chain security.
- Hands-on experience building or extending agentic development workflows, agent tool integrations or shared engineering capabilities for infrastructure and Kubernetesnot only using AI coding assistants. Success in the first 6–12 months
- Deliver reusable cloud/Kubernetes capabilities that reduce custom setting work and deployment variability.
- Remove material gaps in security posture and make evidence collection and drift detection more repeatable.
- Improve deployment safety, platform upgradeability and production diagnostics with measurable outcomes.
- Build or substantially improve deployment, resilience, scaling and observability for Kafka, Redis, relational and document databases and gateway services; reduce operational bottlenecks.
- Build and share agentic platform-development workflows that help engineers design, implement, test and evolve secure infrastructure faster, with measurable quality and review controls. Leveling | Senior: independently owns significant subsystems and implementations. Principal: sets cross-platform architecture and standards, resolves cross-domain design decisions and mentors multiple teams.
