The Platform team is responsible for operating and maintaining a scalable, robust and performant platform, to support both our growing customer base and engineering organisation. Our aim is to enable and empower engineers to self serve and deliver value to our customers in a fast, safe and autonomous manner. We are currently searching for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our growing Infrastructure team to facilitate this.

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will primarily focus on developing and maintaining our core cloud infrastructure (AWS, EKS, Terraform, Atlantis, Elasticache, RDS), enabling engineers to deliver their code from dev —> production (GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines, ArgoCD, Helm, Service Templates) and providing tools and services to enable engineers to observe how their code behaves in production (DataDog dashboards, monitors, alerts and SLOs).

Working closely with other teams in the Product, Data & Engineering (PDE) organisation requires good communication skills, being inquisitive and a problem solver. As a team, we strive not to be a blocker or gatekeeper for engineering delivery, but rather empower and enable engineers to self-serve through automation and tooling as much as possible. You will work with your team to define and implement the roadmap with quarterly objectives. In addition, you will be expected to be a champion of DevOps processes and practices across our engineering organisation, helping to advocate for cross-cutting initiatives around Reliability, Security, Scalability and Efficiency. You will also be expected to participate in the rituals of the teams including planning, grooming, stand-up and demos.💸
