We’re looking for forward-thinking professionals to help scale modern engineering practices across the organization.

About the role:

You will be part of a central engineering enablement group that partners with cross-functional product and platform teams. Your mission: to promote high standards, remove blockers to DevOps adoption, and foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Key responsibilities:

• Champion engineering best practices across development teams

• Implement and govern robust SDLC processes aligned with industry standards

• Support traceability, auditability, and automation throughout the development lifecycle

• Drive adoption of CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and DevSecOps principles

• Identify technical challenges and skill gaps; enable upskilling and capability-building

• Facilitate knowledge sharing and community-building (e.g., workshops, meetups, internal forums)

• Promote reusability and knowledge transfer across teams

• Define KPIs and measure the effectiveness of engineering initiatives

• Help shape and evolve engineering standards through collaboration and influence

What you bring:

  • Software Development (secure coding, clean code, SDLC, APIs)

  • Testing (TDD/BDD, test automation, contract/API testing)

  • Site Reliability Engineering (observability, release engineering, risk management)

• Deep expertise in CI/CD tooling and best practices

• A generalist mindset with the ability to solve complex problems across domains

• Strong communication and influencing skills — technical and non-technical audiences alike

• Ability to work independently, identify opportunities for improvement, and deliver tangible results

• Passion for developer experience, engineering quality, and DevOps culture

Nice to have:

• Experience in developer advocacy or building developer communities

• Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)

• Cloud platform experience (AWS, Azure, GCP)

• Background in regulated environments (e.g., finance, healthcare)

• Relevant certifications (e.g., AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, Certified Kubernetes Administrator)

What we offer:

• A collaborative environment focused on continuous learning and improvement

• High-impact projects at scale

• Flexibility in work style and location (hybrid or remote)

• Competitive compensation and long-term engagement

• Access to training, certifications, and modern tech stack

• A culture built on autonomy, trust, and engineering excellence
