We are looking for an Senior Platform Engineer to join our dynamic and growing Platform Engineering team.

Role Summary:

We are building a platform engineering function from the ground up and this role is at the center of it. As a Senior Platform Engineer you will be a founding team member with a clear, three-part mission: fully rearchitect and codify our cloud estate on AWS and Azure, stand up a world-class SRE and observability practice, and build an Internal Developer Platform with golden paths that make shipping software fast, safe, and self-service. This is a high-ownership individual contributor role. You will work directly with the Platform Engineering Manager to translate strategy into production infrastructure, drive adoption across engineering teams, and set the technical bar for how the platform is built and operated.

If you have strong opinions about infrastructure-as-code, love building things other engineers depend on every day, and want genuine end-to-end ownership — this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities:

Cloud Modernization — Rearchitect & Codify

• Migrate all existing AWS and Azure infrastructure to OpenTofu/Terraform and Ansible; establish module standards, remote state, and GitOps-based plan/apply pipelines — no unmanaged resources
• Audit the cloud estate against the AWS and Azure Well-Architected Frameworks; produce a remediation backlog and drive it to completion across networking, IAM, landing zones, account structure, and cost governance
• Implement policy-as-code (OPA/Conftest, AWS SCPs, Azure Policy) to enforce security, tagging, and compliance guardrails at the platform layer — governance embedded, not bolted on
• Build and maintain reusable Terraform modules for compute (EKS, AKS, EC2), networking, storage, databases, and identity as shared building blocks for all engineering teams
• Define FinOps standards: tagging taxonomy, cost allocation dashboards, rightsizing recommendations, and reserved capacity planning across both clouds

SRE & Observability

• Design and implement the full observability stack: metrics (Prometheus/Datadog), logs (Loki/OpenSearch), traces (Tempo/Datadog APM), and dashboards (Grafana) — instrumented end-to-end via OpenTelemetry
• Define SLIs and SLOs for all platform shared services and critical applications; build error budget dashb
