## Description

ZoomInfo is seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer with a software-first mindset to join our Platform Engineering team. We aren't just looking for someone to manage tools; we want an engineer who treats infrastructure as a software product.

This role is for a proactive owner with a big-picture mindset,someone who takes initiative, looks beyond their immediate tasks, and drives complex projects from initial design all the way to production. You will join a highly collaborative, global team where communication is key to building the 'paved road' for our developers across multiple cloud providers.

**Responsibilities:**

- Software Automation: Develop internal tools and CLI utilities in Go or JavaScript to automate complex SDLC tasks and eliminate manual operations.

- Kubernetes Maintenance: Act as a maintainer for our Kubernetes ecosystem, ensuring the platform is optimized for developer workloads, scalability, and high availability.

- End-to-End Ownership: Lead projects from architectural design to implementation and long-term maintenance, identifying system-wide bottlenecks before they become issues.

- Declarative Infrastructure: Lead the implementation of GitOps workflows using ArgoCD, treating application state and infrastructure as version-controlled code.

- Cloud Orchestration: Provision and manage sophisticated GCP and AWS environments using software-defined infrastructure principles.

- Global Collaboration: Work closely with distributed teams of Architects and Engineers, ensuring clear communication and alignment across different time zones.

**Requirements:**

- Professional Experience: 5+ years of experience in a DevOps/SRE role OR a total of 6+ years of experience consisting of at least 3 years in Software Development and 3 years in DevOps.

- High Degree of Ownership: A proven track record of taking full responsibility for projects, solving ambiguous problems, and driving initiatives end-to-end.

- Software Proficiency: Strong programming skills in Go, JavaScript, or Python, with the ability to write clean, testable code for automation and tooling.

- Kubernetes Expertise: Hands-on experience as a Kubernetes maintainer, including cluster management, resource optimization, and a deep understanding of Kubernetes internals.

- CI/CD Architecture: Proven expertise in designing complex, logic-heavy pipelines (GitHub Actions preferred).

**Additional skills:**

- AI Development: Experience or knowledge in AI/ML development, including building or deploying LLM-based applications or managing AI infrastructure.

- Infrastructure as Code: Advanced experience with Terraform or Pulumi.

- Control Planes: Experience with Crossplane for managing cloud infrastructure via Kubernetes.
