About the role
As a Platform Engineer on the Compute team, you’ll improve how engineers build and run services, helping ensure our compute platform is reliable at scale for our learners and fellow Duo engineers. The Compute team builds and operates the core compute platform that powers our applications. We build paved roads (self-service platform primitives, templates, and tooling) and we operate them so product engineers can focus on shipping features with confidence.
What they're looking for
- Strong problem-solving skills and experience delivering and shipping pragmatic solutions in production environments
- Experience with distributed systems fundamentals (networking, service-to-service communication, failure modes, caching/storage concepts)
- Experience working on production systems (through industry roles, internships, or substantial open-source work)
- Experience with one or more CI/CD tools (Jenkins, Argo CD, GitHub Actions) and infrastructure management tools (Terraform, CloudFormation)
- Clear written and verbal communication skills—comfortable writing docs/runbooks and collaborating across teams
- Functional knowledge of Linux system administration and automation
