Full description
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Staff Infrastructure and Platform Engineer based in the United States.
Join a technology-driven engineering team focused on building and operating reliable infrastructure and platform services that empower product teams to deliver software efficiently. In this hands-on role, you will implement automated pipelines, shared services, and cloud-ready environments that simplify development and deployment. You will contribute to infrastructure reliability, operational excellence, and the adoption of standardized engineering practices. Working within a small, collaborative team, you will help maintain production services, improve automation, and support incident response. You will collaborate closely with senior engineers to implement established architectural standards while identifying opportunities for improvement. This remote opportunity offers practical exposure to platform engineering and site reliability engineering (SRE), with room to expand your technical ownership and grow your career.
Accountabilities
- Platform Development: Build, maintain, and enhance standardized development pipelines, shared platform services, and engineering environments that enable product teams to deliver software consistently.
- Infrastructure Automation: Implement infrastructure-as-code solutions to automate provisioning, configuration, and environment management while promoting repeatability and reducing manual effort.
- Operations and Reliability: Contribute to monitoring, alerting, incident response, and on-call rotations to maintain dependable platform services and support service-level objectives.
- Incident Management: Assist with troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, and post-incident problem-solving to improve system stability and prevent recurring issues.
- Developer Enablement: Help product teams onboard to standardized platform workflows, provide technical guidance, and maintain clear, accurate documentation for shared tools and services.
- Architecture and Standards Compliance: Implement solutions in accordance with established architecture, security, and platform standards. Identify gaps and recommend reusable approaches rather than creating isolated workarounds.
- Continuous Improvement: Deliver platform features and automation within planned development cycles, improve infrastructure-as-code adoption, and minimize rework caused by deviations from established standards.
- Team Collaboration: Work closely with senior engineers and cross-functional stakeholders to share knowledge, address technical challenges, and progressively take ownership of platform components.
