Job Description

We're hiring a Lead Platform Engineer who will split their time 50/50 between hands-on technical work and cross-functional collaboration. You'll partner closely with product pods, PMs, and stakeholders across the business to understand their workflows and velocity, observability, and DevEx pain points, then build the infrastructure and tooling that directly addresses these needs. Tech stack: AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps (Flux, Spacelift), Datadog, CI/CD automation. We're looking for someone who is an expert in Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tools, has deep platform engineering experience and experience executing complex infrastructure migrations, treats platform capabilities as products (gather requirements, iterate, measure adoption), excels at cross-functional collaboration beyond traditional IT/ops boundaries, and communicates technical tradeoffs effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences. This is a foundational hire with significant influence over our platform direction. You'll build the next generation of infrastructure and tooling that lets our engineers ship faster and sleep better. Bonus points for frontend/backend dev skills, experience embedded with agile product squads, AI tooling proficiency.
