Lead Platform Engineer

• Lead the design, delivery, and evolution of enterprise CI/CD capabilities centered on Bitbucket source control, SonarQube quality scanning, and Artifactory artifact management.
• Define and own opinionated CI/CD workflows, patterns, and guardrails that balance developer autonomy with enterprise governance.
• Drive consistent adoption of code quality gates, artifact lifecycle and promotion standards, and secure build practices across engineering teams.
• Treat CI/CD as a product—prioritizing developer experience, stability, and long‑term sustainability.
DevOps & Automation
• Design and maintain shared pipeline components, templates, and automation frameworks that reduce duplication and improve consistency.
• Automate build, operate, and run aspects of the CI/CD ecosystem—minimizing manual intervention and operational risk.
• Enable scalable, repeatable CI/CD execution using ephemeral and containerized build environments.
SRE & Operational Ownership
• Own the operational health of assigned CI/CD platforms, including:
○ Reliability and availability
○ Monitoring, alerting, and observability
○ Risk identification and remediation
○ Continuous improvement and resilience
• Partner on incident response, root cause analysis, and blameless postmortems, ensuring learnings are fed back into platform design.
• Improve feedback loops so that failures surface early, clearly, and actionably for engineering teams.
Technical Leadership & Collaboration
• Participate in prioritization and roadmap discussions with Product and Program stakeholders, translating goals into executable technical plans.
• Lead pragmatic design and trade‑off discussions—balancing speed, quality, reliability, and cost.
• Review code, pipeline changes, and automation contributed by others, ensuring alignment to standards and best practices.
• Mentor and guide engineers through hands‑on technical leadership, design reviews, and day‑to‑day problem solving.
• Contribute reusable patterns, libraries, and practices through engineering guilds and platform communities.
