## Description

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will design, develop and maintain a mission-critical hybrid cloud platform used by multiple product teams. You work closely with internal teams as well as external partners to ensure the platform remains secure, resilient and easy to use.

A major focus of your role is building and maintaining Terraform-based infrastructure and reusable platform building blocks. You enable teams through self-service capabilities, strong CI/CD foundations and GitOps workflows. You continuously improve the platform with a strong focus on security, reliability, observability and operational excellence.

You also play a mentoring role, supporting junior engineers through code reviews, pairing and technical guidance. In addition, you contribute to defining SLOs and SLIs, incident analysis and improvements that reduce MTTR across the platform.
