📋 Description

• Make high-quality, data-driven and experience-driven decisions on how we build this and the next generation of our production platform, then deliver the results. • Own and build how we test, build and deploy code in a high-scale PaaS environment. • Collaborate across the whole company on how we design production systems, set standards and make technology choices for new and existing products, and how these fit together. • Deliver results - we routinely “change the wheels on the bus while it’s moving”, in a predictable, safe and reliable way. • Be at the forefront of how we work together as a Platform Engineering team. • Work on a small but growing team on building out the Platform/Reliability practice for the company – this role reports directly to the VP of Reliability. • Be directly involved in decision-making on what we work on, as well as how we work on it. Make promises, and keep them. • Create and maintain comprehensive internal documentation for systems and processes, ensuring clarity and accessibility.

🎯 Requirements

• Strong experience in Non-Abstract Systems design and implementation. • Strong proficiency in Python and Golang. • In-depth experience with Kubernetes (CKA or equivalent or greater). • Experience with observability principles and technologies, including SLI/SLO definition and tracking. • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with experience in working with a globally distributed team in delivery. • A passion for reliability and operational excellence. A low tolerance for toil and other nonsense. • Ability to estimate the scope of work accurately and coordinate with stakeholders to address risks and ensure successful project delivery. • Experience with software development best practices, such as code review, testing, CI/CD, version control, automation and debugging. • Proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues, with a focus on ownership and accountability.
