You’ll translate the needs of developers and infrastructure specialists into services that are reliable, usable and able to operate at significant scale. **The Role** * Own infrastructure products and services that improve developer productivity. * Lead large technical projects from initial problem definition through design, delivery and operation. * Act as a senior technical architect for the wider application engineering team. * Partner with developers, application engineers and infrastructure specialists to understand user needs. * Shape product direction while making detailed engineering decisions and building production solutions. **What We're Looking For** * At least seven years of direct experience designing, building and scaling large distributed systems. * Hands\-on experience building within the Kubernetes ecosystem. * A track record of delivering complex developer\-facing or user\-facing products. * Strong programming across one or more relevant languages such as Python, Go or Rust. * A computer science or related technical degree. * Excellent communication, self\-management and stakeholder skills, with a service\-oriented approach. **Desirable Experience** * Linux and networking fundamentals. * Hands\-on work with on\-premises infrastructure.
