What You Can Expect
You will be the leader of our Platforms DevOps team. This team is responsible for Zoom’s Kubernetes clusters in both datacenters and clouds, as well as for our cloudops infrastructure. The scope and mandate of the team are broad, and you will have significant opportunities to partner with teams across Engineering, DevOps/SRE, and Security. You'll drive projects that enable new features, improve infrastructure reliability and security, and reduce costs. Within the team, you'll manage technical ICs and continuously improve processes with automation, policy, and AI.
Broadly speaking, you are an exemplary SRE/DevOps leader with expertise running k8s, and knowledge of best practices for IaC, automation, monitoring, and security. You also have experience communicating nuanced concepts to diverse audiences (e.g. both engineers and senior management). You can balance technical tradeoffs, and can adapt plans to deliver quickly on the most important goals for our customers and partners.
