Your role:
- Design, develop, and operate internal Code Hub Platform Engineering services on top of our AWS/GitHub/Artifactory foundational layer.
- Implement infrastructure-as-code and automation pipelines using Terraform, GitHub Actions, and other DevOps tools.
- Lead or co-lead improvements in scalability, reliability, and developer experience for mission-critical services.
- Monitor and continuously improve service performance, cost-efficiency, observability, and compliance with SRE best practices.
- Enhance the security posture of CI/CD pipelines, with a focus on supply chain security, artifact integrity, and policy automation including collaboration with security teams to integrate SBOMs, signing, provenance tracking, and vulnerability scanning into platform services.
- Promote engineering best practices, InnerSource contributions, knowledge sharing and feedback gathering across platforms and Business Units.
- Contribute to and support the Backstage Developer Portal as a gateway to platform capabilities and self-service workflows.
You’re the right fit if you have:
- Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology or equivalent.
- A minimum of 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience with proficiency in at least one modern language (e.g., TypeScript, Python, Java, or C#).
- Experience in designing, securing, and scaling CI/CD pipelines using GitHub, GitHub Actions, and infrastructure-as-code tools.
- Experience with cloud-native development and deployment, especially on AWS (e.g., ECS, Lambda, S3, CloudWatch).
- A good understanding of software supply chain security concepts such as SBOMs, provenance, dependency scanning, and artifact signing.
- Exposure to artifact management systems like JFrog Artifactory and secure package delivery practices.
- Comfortable working with container-based systems (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and modern observability tooling.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills to work cross-functionally across Business Units, security and platform teams
How we work together
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.
Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities.
Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
Indicate if this role is an office/field/onsite role.
