  • Building and maintaining observability and monitoring coverage for the systems you own
  • Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to design and code reviews
  • Collaborating with the India team to align local implementation with the broader global platform strategy

  • 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, Platform Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering
  • Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production , deployment, networking, security, and troubleshooting
  • Experience operating large-scale internal infrastructure platforms in a public cloud, preferably AWS

  • Strong proficiency in Python or similar scripting and programming languages
  • Exposure to or interest in building infrastructure that hosts AI/ML or agentic workflows
  • Experience with observability platforms and monitoring tools (Grafana, Splunk, APM, or equivalent)
  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving, evolving environment with ambiguity around process and tooling
  • Effective verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across time zones
  • Computer Science degree or related field, or equivalent experience

Good to have:

  • Exposure to internal developer platform (IDP) concepts or "platform as a product" thinking
  • Hands-on experience with AI agent orchestration, vector databases, model routing, or inference infrastructure
  • Multi-cloud experience (AWS plus Azure or GCP)
  • Service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd) or GitOps tooling (ArgoCD, Flux)
  • Kubernetes certifications (CKA, CKS, CKAD) or equivalent cloud certifications
