Software Engineer III
Only for California based profiles. Only on W2. No C2C, H1B etc. Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and operate internal developer platform capabilities that abstract infrastructure complexity and enable product engineering teams to self-serve common workflows. Lead modernization initiatives using a Current State/Desired State mindset, translating operational pain points into measurable platform engineering outcomes.
- Create and maintain “golden path” templates, standards, and automation for application onboarding, infrastructure provisioning, CI/CD, observability, security controls, and production readiness.
- Develop platform tools, APIs, CLIs, reusable Terraform modules, pipelines, and documentation that improve developer experience and reduce manual handoffs.
- Partner with software engineering, security, architecture, SRE, and operations teams to embed guardrails for reliability, compliance, data protection, and cloud cost management into platform workflows.
- Maintain continuous integration, continuous delivery, and GitOps-oriented deployment practices that support rapid, low-risk, repeatable releases across production and non-production environments.
- Establish monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, SLOs, runbooks, and incident response practices that improve platform reliability and operational readiness.
- Participate in 24x7 on-call rotation and support production and non-production environments with a focus on automation, prevention, and continuous improvement.
