About the role
This role is for a hands-on Platform Engineer to build and operate infrastructure foundations across Kubernetes, observability, AI-enabled workloads, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code. You will collaborate with software, DevOps, security, and AI/ML teams to translate platform capabilities into a dependable developer experience.
What you'll do
- Design, build, and operate Kubernetes-based platform capabilities for development, test, and production workloads.
- Create reusable infrastructure-as-code modules, patterns, and automated workflows using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Helm, or Kustomize.
- Develop platform observability covering metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, alerting, service-level objectives, and operational runbooks.
- Build infrastructure to deploy, operate, observe, and govern AI/ML workloads, including model-serving, GPU-enabled compute, data-access, and workload-isolation patterns.
- Enable self-service for engineering teams through platform APIs, templates, documentation, golden paths, and CI/CD integrations.
- Investigate complex production issues, lead root-cause analysis, and execute durable preventative improvements across platform systems.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 6+ years of experience in software engineering, DevOps, SRE, cloud infrastructure, or platform engineering.
- Hands-on experience operating and automating Kubernetes environments, along with container deployment tooling like Docker, Helm, Kustomize, Argo CD, or Flux.
- Experience implementing infrastructure as code using Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, Ansible, or comparable tools.
- Practical experience with observability platforms and concepts, including metrics, logging, distributed tracing, alerting, dashboards, and SLOs.
- Proficiency in at least one programming or scripting language such as Python, Go, Bash, or TypeScript, combined with troubleshooting skills across Linux, networking, and distributed systems.
Nice to have
- Experience designing internal developer platforms, large-scale shared infrastructure, or GitOps operating models.
- Experience with Prometheus, Python, Bash, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Loki, Tempo, Elastic, Datadog, or Splunk.
- Experience with IBM LSF and Netapp Storage.
- Experience supporting AI/ML infrastructure, model serving, GPU scheduling, Kubernetes operators, or AI workload orchestration.
- Semiconductor experience or EDA experience.
- Knowledge of service mesh, API gateways, ingress, networking, or multi-cluster Kubernetes architectures.
