## Description

A large oil and gas company is seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to lead infrastructure automation and platform engineering initiatives within the Midstream IT organization. This role is ideal for an engineer who combines deep infrastructure expertise with modern DevOps and Infrastructure-as-Code practices.

What You'll Do

 * Design and implement infrastructure automation, CI/CD pipelines, and platform engineering solutions.

 * Build and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) frameworks for provisioning and managing enterprise infrastructure.

 * Drive platform reliability, scalability, performance optimization, and operational excellence.

 * Lead troubleshooting, root cause analysis, disaster recovery planning, and system resiliency initiatives.

 * Develop self-service infrastructure capabilities, automated provisioning solutions, and platform tooling.

 * Partner with architects, engineering teams, and business stakeholders to define platform strategy and roadmaps.

Provide technical leadership, mentor engineers, and lead design and architecture reviews.
