We are looking for a Platform Engineering Manager to join our dynamic and growing Platform Engineering team.
About the Role: We are seeking a Platform Engineering Manager to build and operate our AI-native Internal Developer Platform (IDP)-the foundational layer that powers engineering velocity across the organization. You will own multi-cloudinfrastructure (AWS & Azure), define golden paths, drive cloud modernization aligned to Well-ArchitectedFrameworks, and deliver the observability, shared services, and agentic infrastructure that give every team aproduction-ready foundation. A defining dimension of this role is partnering with peer engineering leaders to activelymigrate teams onto the platform and positioning it as the organization's AI-first engineering foundation.
Key Responsibilities:Platform Strategy & Architecture
• Own and execute thePlatformroadmap: compute, networking, identity, observability, shared services, and AI/MLtooling across AWS and Azure
• Lead cloud modernization against the AWS and Azure Well-Architected Frameworks across all five pillars:operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimization
• Define golden paths-standardized self-service workflows for service scaffolding, DB provisioning, environmentspin-up, and AI workload deployment-with escape hatches for edge cases
• Own multi-cloud strategy; ensure consistent IAM, networking, and FinOps governance across providers
IaC & CI/CD Automation
• DriveOpenTofu/Ansibleas source of truth for all infrastructure; enforce GitOps and policy-as-code for governance,auditability, and security
• Build and mature CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD) to maximize deployment frequency, reduce lead time,and enable zero-ticket self-service provisioning
Observability
• Own org-wide observability: metrics, logs, traces, and alerting-extended to AI/LLM signals (token usage, modellatency, inference cost, agent task completion rates)
• Operate a centralized observability platform (Datadog/Signoz, OpenTelemetry, Grafana/Prometheus/Loki, orequivalent) delivered via golden paths; define SLIs/SLOs as onboarding defaults for all services
• Ensure full-stack coverage across infrastructure, Kubernetes, APM, distributed tracing, AI pipelines, and costanomaly detection
Shared Services
• Build and operate a self-service shared services catalog: secrets management, API gateways,model registries, andLLM gateways
• Rationalize duplicative per-team infrastructure; maintain shared services to production SLA standards with clearownership and consistent security controls
AI Platform & Agentic Infrastructure
• Own GPU/accelerated compute, model serving, vector databases, RAG pipelines, and LLM API gatewaymanagement (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic)
• Build AI golden paths for self-service model deployment and LLM integration; design agentic infrastructure includingorchestration runtimes, tool registries, memory/state services, and human-in-the-loop workflows
• Establish governance, cost controls, prompt injection guardrails, and model access policies for AI API usage andinference spend
• Partner with data science and ML engineering to translate agentic workflow requirements into reusable platformprimitives
Platform Adoption & Team Migration
• Collaborate onmigration program: partner with peer managers to plan and execute structured workload migrationsonto the platform with hands-on support-not just documentation
• Define onboarding playbooks covering golden paths, shared services, observability setup, CI/CD cutover, and AIcapability onboarding; track and report adoption metrics to leadership
• Identify and remove migration blockers-technical gaps, missing services, or organizational friction-and feedthem into the platform roadmap
Developer Experience, Leadership & Culture
• Build a self-service developer portal (Backstage, GitHubor equivalent) with service catalogs, golden paths, andAI/agentic workflow templates; track DORA metrics and developer experience KPIs
• Hire, develop, and retain high-performing platform engineers; build AI fluency across the team and foster a platform-as-a-product culture with feedback loops, OKRs, and iterative roadmapping
• Lead architecture reviews; make pragmatic build-vs-buy decisions; partner with security and compliance ongovernance priorities
Security, Compliance & ...
