We are seeking a passionate and experienced Engineer to join our Developer Experience Engineering team. In this role, you will design, build, and evolve the systems, platforms, and workflows that enable our engineering teams to deliver software quickly, safely, and reliably.
This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, platform engineering, and developer productivity. You will focus on creating a world-class developer experience by reducing friction in the software development lifecycle, improving deployment automation, and enabling true Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) practices across the organization.
The ideal candidate believes that developer productivity is a product, understands that every minute of engineering friction matters, and is passionate about building platforms and tooling that engineers love to use.
Key Responsibilities
Developer Experience & Engineering Productivity
- Design and build self-service developer platforms, tooling, and workflows that improve engineering productivity and reduce cognitive load.
- Partner with engineering teams to identify pain points in the software development lifecycle and implement scalable solutions.
- Create frameworks that enable teams to build, test, deploy, and operate applications consistently and efficiently.
- Measure and improve developer experience using engineering productivity metrics, feedback loops, and adoption data.
- Drive standardization and best practices across development environments, deployment workflows, and engineering tooling.
CI/CD & Deployment Automation
- Design, build, and maintain modern CI/CD platforms using GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, and related tooling.
- Implement and champion true Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment practices, including automated testing, quality gates, deployment validation, and rollback mechanisms.
- Optimize build, test, and deployment pipelines to reduce lead time and improve developer feedback cycles.
- Build deployment automation that enables safe, frequent, and reliable releases across multiple environments.
- Partner with application teams to improve release processes and eliminate manual deployment activities.
Platform Engineering & Cloud Infrastructure
- Develop and maintain cloud-native developer platforms running on Azure and Kubernetes.
- Build reusable infrastructure and deployment patterns using Infrastructure as Code technologies such as Terraform.
- Improve application onboarding, service provisioning, secrets management, and environment management through automation and self-service capabilities.
- Collaborate with Platform Engineering and SRE teams to ensure reliability, scalability, security, and operational excellence.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).
- 5–8 years of experience in Developer Experience, Platform Engineering, DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Software Engineering roles.
- Demonstrated passion for improving developer productivity and software delivery workflows.
- Strong experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or similar platforms.
- Experience implementing Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment practices in production environments.
- Experience building deployment automation and supporting frequent, low-risk software releases.
- Strong understanding of cloud-native architectures and Kubernetes-based application delivery.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform or similar technologies.
- Proficiency in scripting or software development using Python, Go, Bash, PowerShell, or similar languages.
- Experience with observability platforms, monitoring, and software delivery metrics.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience building Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) and self-service engineering capabilities.
- Experience with Backstage or other developer portal technologies.
- Experience with GitOps workflows and tools such as ArgoCD.
- Familiarity with DORA metrics, SPACE framework, or other engineering effectiveness models.
- Experience supporting Kubernetes-based development platforms.
- Experience implementing progressive delivery strategies, feature flags, canary deployments, or blue/green deployments.
- Experience building reusable developer tooling, CLIs, templates, or automation frameworks.
- Experience working within highly regulated environments such as financial services, healthcare, or fintech.
- Azure, Kubernetes, or cloud platform certifications.
