• Define reliability engineering practices, including SLI and SLO frameworks, incident response, and post-mortems
• Improve developer experience through CI platform standardization and self-service tooling, enabling teams to manage infrastructure as code independently
• Lead incident command during critical outages and ensure systemic fixes are implemented
• Own vendor strategy and infrastructure budget, negotiate enterprise contracts, and lead migrations to new vendors as needed

You’re a great fit if you:

• Have 8+ years of infrastructure or platform engineering experience, with at least 4 years managing or leading engineering teams at a high-growth technology company
• Have fundamentally changed team operations through AI, with specific examples of systems designed and work absorbed
• Make decisions and set technical direction with incomplete information, iterate quickly, and adjust based on data
• Have managed managers or tech leads and scaled teams through significant growth while maintaining performance and culture
• Possess deep hands-on expertise in AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, ArgoCD, and modern observability tooling, with the ability to debug complex distributed systems
• Demonstrate strong business acumen, treating cloud spend, developer velocity, and reliability as business enablers
• Have a track record of developing engineers and can point to their subsequent achievements
