This role is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining repeatable, secure, and observable environments that support our production mission. You will write and test code that provisions infrastructure, pipelines, and deployment artifacts — be directly accountable for their reliability in production — and empower teams by delivering tooling as a service.

Design, implement, and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, CloudFormation, or CDK to provision AWS accounts, VPCs, networking, IAM, and other cloud resources in a repeatable and auditable manner. Supports the design, development, test, and maintenance of non-embedded software throughout the end-to-end lifecycle that meets industry, customer, safety, and regulation standards.

Assists with review, analysis and translation of customer requirements into initial design of software products. Containerize applications using Docker and author/maintain Helm charts (or equivalent packaging) for reproducible deployments. Supports development, maintenance, enhancement and optimization of software products and functionalities for systems integrations. Implement environment bootstrapping and teardown automation so teams can create consistent, short‑lived test and integration environments. Supports development, documentation and maintenance of architectures, requirements, algorithms, interfaces and designs for software products. Deliver and operate internal developer-facing platforms and tooling as a service (TaaS): self-service infrastructure, deployment, observability, and security controls that let product teams move faster with confidence. Participates in handling user inquiries, troubleshooting technical issues and user feedback analysis. Define, collect, and improve delivery and reliability metrics (DORA metrics: lead time, deployment frequency, MTTR, change failure rate) and other KPIs; translate metrics into actionable improvements. Supports development, establishment, monitoring and improvement of software processes, tools and key performance metrics that align projects with organizational goals and industry benchmarks. Integrate security and compliance controls into the delivery pipeline and infrastructure (SAST/SCA/DAST, secrets management, IAM policies, auditing). Supports implementation of current and emerging technologies, tools, frameworks and changes in regulations relevant to software development. Operate and troubleshoot mission‑critical runtime and deployment issues; perform root cause analysis and implement preventive measures. Supports debugging and resolution of issues identified to ensure the reliability and efficiency of software products. Provide developer-facing support, documentation, training, and graduated access to the TaaS platform to enable teams to build, deliver, and operate systems confidently. Supports execution and documentation of software research and development projects. Engage directly with end users and stakeholders: gather feedback, present solutions to customers, and iterate on platform features based on real-world usage and needs. Assists with performing software project management activities and software supplier management functions.
