Partner with Security, Risk, Architecture and Engineering teams while mentoring others and driving technical direction across the platform

What do I need?

Proven experience delivering enterprise-scale DevOps or CI/CD platforms, with strong hands-on expertise in GitHub Enterprise, GitHub Actions and Runners, and CD tools such as Harness, Octopus Deploy and Argo CD
Strong experience with Infrastructure-as-Code, ideally Terraform or OpenTofu, with Terraform Enterprise experience desirable.
Strong experience with automation and tooling development in Python, and with using APIs to manage platform configuration at scale.
Strong understanding of container and runtime platforms, including Docker, Kubernetes and Helm.
Comfortable operating across Linux and Windows environments, with strong troubleshooting skills and familiarity with observability and monitoring tooling.
Desirable to have experience integrating SaaS platforms into regulated or risk-sensitive environments and improving developer experience through secure-by-default platform design.
Passionate about modern engineering practices, strong delivery discipline and creating low-friction paths that help teams move faster without compromising quality.
Ideally, you will be part of the wider technical community through mentoring, design leadership or contribution to engineering standards and practices.
