Meet the Team

Developer Platforms builds the internal systems that enable more than 3,000 Splunk engineers to build, test, and release world-class products at scale. Our work connects the daily developer experience to the wider software delivery lifecycle. You will join a cross-functional team of engineers and leaders who value practical innovation in making complex engineering work easier for others. The team is helping shape Splunk’s next generation of quality platforms. This work gives engineers greater confidence as they deliver software.

Minimum Qualifications

3+ years of experience in one or more of developer platforms, quality engineering, test frameworks, CI/CD, build systems, release automation, infrastructure platforms, or developer tooling.
Experience with automated testing, release pipelines, service architecture, distributed systems, or comparable modern software development practices.
Experience leading architectural change, platform modernization, or large-scale technical migrations across multiple engineering teams.
Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience providing technical leadership across teams without direct reporting authority.
Experience building platforms for large internal engineering communities or organizations with thousands of developers.
Experience with AI-enabled engineering workflows, quality analytics, or emerging developer productivity technologies.
Ability to create clarity, communicate complex technical ideas, and align engineers, managers, and cross-functional stakeholders.
Passion for improving developer experience, engineering quality, automation, and software delivery confidence.
