## Description

As part of this role, you willbe responsible formaintainingservices in a FedRAMP compliant environment, therefore, must be a U.S. citizen. This position may also perform work that the U.S. government has specified can only be performed by a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil.

Meet the Team

Splunk's Control Plane organization builds the foundational, self-service automated platform that empowers hundreds of internal engineering teams to deploy world-class cloud services with speed and safety. By abstracting infrastructure complexity and delivering friction-free deployment workflows, our team directly accelerates how fast Splunk delivers mission-critical observability and security innovations to global enterprises. We are a collaborative, inclusive, and high-impact engineering group thatoperateswith curiosity, autonomy, and mutual mentorship across multi-cloud environments. What makes our team exciting is the opportunity to workon an immensescale, solve deep distributed systems challenges, andleverageartificial intelligence to automate large-scale production infrastructure.

Your Impact

Inthis role, you will contribute directly to a large-scale codebase deploying daily across multiple cloud platforms-including AWS, GCP, Azure, and GovCloud-to serve thousands of enterprise customers. You will architect self-service developer tools and abstractions that enable internal engineering teams to safely manage infrastructure without central bottlenecks. You will deploy and monitor production systems across multi-cloud environments, tuning telemetry, metrics, and alerting to drive operational excellence. You willparticipatein supported on-call rotations to diagnose complex system anomalies, resolve production incidents, andidentifyroot causes. Additionally, you will build and integrate AI-powered tools into engineering workflows to automate configuration changes andoptimizecontinuous delivery pipelines.
