About the company
Join a high-impact engineering organization building the internal developer platform that enables teams to deliver software faster, more securely, and with greater consistency.
Responsibilities
- Internal developer platform: Build and maintain paved-road templates and golden paths within a Backstage-based Internal Developer Platform, enabling engineering teams to provision and use standardized capabilities efficiently.
- Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure: Provision, configure, and operate Amazon EKS clusters across development, staging, and production environments, ensuring reliability, scalability, security, and operational consistency.
- AWS networking: Design and manage cloud networking components, including VPCs, CIDR allocation, VPC peering, Transit Gateway, and site-to-site VPN connectivity.
- Network security: Support Central Inspection Hub onboarding and implement secure egress controls to strengthen cloud network security and governance.
- Observability: Build and operate comprehensive observability capabilities across metrics, logs, and traces using technologies such as Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, VictoriaMetrics, and OpenSearch.
- CI/CD and GitOps: Develop and maintain automated delivery pipelines and GitOps workflows using GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Kargo to improve deployment consistency and engineering velocity.
- Infrastructure as code: Automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration using Terraform or OpenTofu, applying infrastructure-as-code and GitOps principles to minimize manual processes.
- Platform reliability: Establish and maintain reliable, repeatable engineering patterns that improve application delivery, infrastructure operations, system visibility, and developer productivity.
- Cross-functional engineering: Work effectively across cloud infrastructure, networking, security, platform engineering, and developer experience to deliver integrated solutions and resolve complex technical challenges.
- Continuous improvement: Identify opportunities to eliminate operational friction, strengthen automation, improve platform capabilities, and establish scalable engineering practices.
Requirements
- Cloud networking expertise: Strong hands-on experience with AWS networking, including VPC architecture, CIDR allocation, VPC peering, Transit Gateway, and site-to-site VPNs.
- Kubernetes administration: Strong experience managing Kubernetes environments, including cluster administration, RBAC, pod identity, and Amazon EKS.
- Internal developer platforms: Experience building or contributing to an Internal Developer Platform, with hands-on Backstage experience strongly preferred.
- Infrastructure as code and GitOps: Strong understanding of infrastructure-as-code and GitOps practices, with a proven focus on automation, repeatability, and eliminating manual operational work.
- CI/CD experience: Practical experience designing or maintaining modern CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows, particularly in cloud-native environments.
- Observability: Experience with monitoring and observability platforms such as Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, VictoriaMetrics, or OpenSearch is highly valuable.
- Security and identity: Understanding of cloud security, access management, SSO, identity providers, OIDC, and modern identity and access management patterns is preferred.
- Platform engineering mindset: Ability to work across infrastructure, security, networking, Kubernetes, and developer experience while maintaining a strong focus on reliability and usability.
- Service mesh knowledge: Experience with technologies such as Istio or Envoy is an advantage.
- Backstage development: Experience developing Backstage plugins or extending Internal Developer Platform capabilities is preferred.
- Problem-solving: Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, with the ability to diagnose complex infrastructure and platform issues and develop durable solutions.
- Collaboration: Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with software engineers and technical stakeholders across multiple disciplines.
Conditions
- Remote flexibility: Work fully remotely from India while collaborating with distributed engineering teams.
- Staff-level technical impact: Take ownership of foundational infrastructure and platform capabilities that directly influence engineering productivity and software delivery.
- Cloud-native technology: Work extensively with AWS, EKS, Kubernetes, GitOps, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, observability, and modern developer platform technologies.
- Platform engineering exposure: Help shape internal developer experiences through Backstage, golden paths, self-service tooling, and standardized engineering workflows.
- Broad technical scope: Gain exposure across cloud networking, security, identity, infrastructure, deployment automation, monitoring, and developer experience.
- Automation-focused culture: Contribute to a culture that values automation, reliability, and continuous improvement.
