## About the role

Ensure the stability and quality of what you and the team ship: design with failure in mind, put the right tests and observability in place, and react quickly to incidents, driving follow‑ups that prevent them from happening again. Use AI and agents in an AI‑first way in your routine to investigate issues, write and review code, explore solution options and automate repetitive work, helping the squad adopt safe, effective AI workflows rather than just individual usage.

## What they're looking for

- Led end-to-end infrastructure platform projects from design to production go-live, breaking work into clear milestones, coordinating across stakeholders, managing risks and trade-offs, and following through post-rollout to stabilize and evolve the solution
- Experience with Istio or other service-mesh technologies such as Linkerd or Envoy-based solutions — or legacy stacks like Finagle — designing and evolving traffic policies, resilience features and observability for service-to-service communication
- Worked with AWS networking and compute primitives (ALB/NLB, security groups, VPC, Route 53, IAM) in production environments, with an understanding of how these layers interact with application traffic
- Hands-on experience using Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Pulumi or Terraform to design, version and roll out changes to cloud and Kubernetes infrastructure in a safe, repeatable way
- Previously built platform capabilities or shared libraries for other engineers — abstractions, SDKs or internal tooling — that make it easier and safer for product teams to consume traffic and networking capabilities at scale
