## Description

As an Infrastructure Engineer on the Apps Platform Infrastructure team, you'll help build and evolve our platform's deployment and observability layers across multiple cloud providers and on-premises, for both internal and customer-managed environments. This is a role for someone who cares about building cloud-agnostic infrastructure and deployment pipelines.

You'll partner closely with internal teams to understand how they use and deploy the platform, debug their issues, and shape a roadmap that balances immediate needs with long-term architecture.
You will:

 * Expand the deployment footprint of our platform to cover both on-premise, all major cloud platforms and beyond
 * Ensure fast, secure, and reproducible deployments across all supported CSPs and on-prem
 * Expand the observability of the platform so that forward deployed infrastructure teams can easily and efficiently operate customer deployments
 * Partner closely with internal teams deploying the platform to understand their needs, debug issues, and build tooling that serves their use cases
 * Respond to incidents and production issues with urgency, conducting root cause analysis and implementing preventive fixes
 * Help develop and maintain a product roadmap for deployment and observability
 * Lead architecture reviews and own projects end-to-end, from design through deployment, in fast-paced cross-functional settings
