Responsibilities

Internal Platform Development & Architecture

Design, develop, and evolve internal build platforms (primarily in Python) serving 65+ active software projects.
Build and scale platform services that reliably handle 10,000+ jobs, with clear SLIs/SLOs, observability, and failure modes teams can understand.
Own platform APIs, CLIs, and self-service workflows so teams can onboard, build, test, and release without tickets.
Treat internal developers as customers: gather feedback, prioritize pain points, and iterate on developer experience.

CI/CD Excellence & Process Optimization

Implement and improve pipeline primitives, reusable templates, and release automation that raise quality and cadence across teams.
Reduce manual toil by encoding policy and workflow into the platform - creating guardrails as code and eliminating tribal knowledge.
Support horizontal integration across diverse value streams via shared contracts, plugins, and extension points.

Infrastructure & Technical Leadership

Solve hybrid-cloud and on-premises constraints through durable platform abstractions, and eliminate ticket-driven firefighting.
Support physical instrument and hardware-constrained workflows with purpose-built platform capabilities where needed.
Stay hands-on designing and shipping production-quality code; use ops experience to inform architecture.

Leadership & Collaboration

Serve as a technical leader and mentor, elevating the capabilities of engineers across the organization.
Drive cross-functional collaboration, ensuring smooth integration across systems, teams, and business functions.
Establish and champion best practices, standards, and patterns for DevOps and platform engineering.
Communicate technical strategies and trade-offs clearly with engineers, leadership, and stakeholders at all levels.

Qualifications

Education & Experience: Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science (or a related field) with 10+ years of DevOps/platform engineering experience, including operating at scale.
Programming Expertise: Strong proficiency in Python, with a deep understanding of object-oriented design and maintainable software architecture.
Git at Scale: Expert Git; multi-repo/monorepo strategies; branching and governance that platforms enforce.
Systems Proficiency: Advanced shell scripting (Bash, PowerShell) with fluency in diverse Linux and Windows operating environments.
CI/CD Leadership: Extensive experience designing, implementing, and scaling CI/CD pipelines; proven success driving release reliability and velocity across multiple teams.
Scale & Reliability: Track record managing large-scale systems with high availability and performance requirements.
Hybrid Cloud Expertise: Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure, and on-premises environments.
Automation: Bias toward eliminating manual workflows with durable, tested automation.
Technical Leadership: Proven ability to mentor engineers, influence architectural direction, and set standards across teams.
Hands-On Development: Strong programming background with the ability to design and deliver production-quality code and raise the bar for platform quality.

Preferred Qualifications

Complex System Integration: Experience supporting or integrating with physical instruments or hardware-constrained systems.
Proven Leadership: Demonstrated technical leadership experience within software organizations, influencing direction and elevating team performance.
Polyglot Engineering: Knowledge of multiple programming languages and build systems, with the ability to choose the right tool for the problem.
Scale Experience: Hands-on experience scaling platforms to reliably manage very high volumes and concurrency.
Enterprise Context: Background operating within enterprise software development environments, balancing agility with governance.
Configuration Management Expertise: Experience with modern configuration management frameworks such as Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.
Cloud-Native Practices: Champion of containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker, Lambda, and ECS.
Advanced Python Expertise: Experience developing large-scale, maintainable Python services and frameworks used across the organization.
