Role description

The project is moving everything towards GCP and Kubernetes. We're growing towards a scale that no longer matches our legacy architecture and actively investing in modernization. We're migrating on-premise workloads to GKE, strengthening security and business continuity best practices, and moving toward platform self-service for our development teams. A core goal is to consolidate and shrink the stack and every migration decision is measured against whether it lowers the daily burden on the team.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2+ years of experience being a mentor/leader, of which:
  • 1+ years leading a team, formally or as a tech lead
  • 7+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering, of which:
  • 3+ years running production workloads on Kubernetes (GKE preferred)
  • 3+ years of experience with a major cloud provider and Infrastructure as Code. GCP is our primary cloud and we expect senior-level knowledge of IAM, networking, KMS, GKE, CloudSQL and Secret Manager
  • 3+ years of experience operating at a Senior, Staff, or Principal Engineer level.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipeline design and operations
  • Experience with GitOps (FluxCD or ArgoCD)
  • Experience working directly with engineering teams and other managers as your customers on scoping and prioritization
  • Experience leading incident response, including running postmortems

Responsibilities

  • Work with your team to design, build, and operate the infrastructure the rest of engineering depends on: clusters, pipelines, databases, edge, and observability
  • Your customers are the other engineering teams. Work with the other Engineering Managers and product development leadership to scope and prioritize platform work
  • Set the quality bar for your team. Lead by example.
  • Manage, lead, and mentor your team while working side by side with them in code quality, clean infrastructure-as-code, soft skills, best practices, etc
  • Lead team trainings, set SMART goals, hold performance reviews, and provide individual feedback recurrently to each of your devs

Nice to have

  • Experience leading a team through a significant architectural migration
  • Experience with consumer platforms at scale
  • Experience building in regulated environments
  • Experience operating self-hosted observability stacks (Prometheus, Thanos, Loki, Grafana, Tempo, OpenTelemetry)
  • Experience building internal developer platforms or self-service tooling
  • Experience supporting .NET/C# application deployments
  • Experience with database operations (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, RabbitMQ)
  • Experience with Istio or other service meshes
