About the Role
Weʼre looking for a Full Stack Engineer who is passionate about building the foundational systems, tools,
and paved roads that empower thousands of engineers across our organization. In this role, youʼll work
within our Cloud and Developer Experience organization to design and deliver self-service capabilities,
reusable IaC components, and developer experience tooling that streamline how teams build, deploy, and

platform skill set, collaborate across product and engineering teams, and contribute to the strategic
direction of a world-class internal platform.
What Youʼll Be Doing
Design, build, and evolve platform capabilities including Infrastructure as Code modules,
Kubernetes automation, service templates, and observability integrations—that support teams across
the company.
Develop reusable frameworks and self-service tooling in TypeScript/Node.js that simplify service
provisioning, deployment workflows, and operational readiness.
Contribute to the creation and adoption of golden paths and paved-road templates, improving
consistency, reliability, and developer experience across our ecosystem.
Implement platform components focused on availability, security, and cost efficiency,
partnering with senior engineers for design guidance when needed.
Work closely with product teams and internal stakeholders to understand pain points, gather
feedback, and iterate on platform features that drive measurable impact.
Participate in roadmap planning, technical design reviews, and platform KPI development,
helping shape the next generation of internal tooling.
Contribute to engineering culture by sharing best practices, participating in code reviews, and
mentoring junior engineers on modern cloud and platform techniques.
What You Bring
Technical Expertise
4–8 years of software engineering experience, with exposure to platform engineering, developer
experience, cloud infrastructure, or DevOps practices.

A customer-centric approach to internal tooling — you deeply care about the developer journey
and work to reduce friction wherever possible.
Ability to work iteratively, delivering tangible improvements while contributing to the long-term
platform vision.

KPIs or success metrics.
