You don't need to write production code, but you read system designs critically and push back substantively. * Experience driving at least one of: a cloud migration at scale, a major infrastructure cost program with measurable financial impact, an internal platform buildout, or a comparably large horizontal platform/infrastructure initiative. * Demonstrated ability to lead and influence senior engineering stakeholders, including Staff+ ICs, engineering managers, and executive sponsors, without direct authority. * Excellent written and verbal communication, with a particular ability to distill complex technical tradeoffs into crisp narratives for exec audiences and across functions. * A track record of building durable mechanisms (review forums, metrics, operating cadences) that outlive any individual program and scale with the org. * Comfort with ambiguity. You're energized by problems that aren't yet well-defined and where the first step is to scope the problem itself. * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field. Bonus Points * Experience driving infrastructure cost programs in a high-growth environment (target metrics like cost per tenant, infrastructure as % of revenue). * Experience leading a cloud migration, BYOC rollout, or major platform consolidation end-to-end. * Experience standing up or scaling an internal platform / developer experience function from the ground up. * Experience managing strategic vendor relationships with hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP) or foundation model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic). * Familiarity with the modern infra stack at scale: Terraform, Kubernetes, service meshes, data platforms, and observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana). * Prior experience as an engineering manager, platform/infrastructure engineer, or SRE before moving into program management. ## Description * Own end-to-end execution of Harvey's most strategic platform & infrastructure programs, including cloud migrations, infrastructure cost optimization, capacity planning, BYOC, and the buildout of the new Backend Platform team's foundations, partnering deeply with Infra and Platform leadership. * Lead Harvey's infrastructure cost program: establish ownership, accountability, and reporting mechanisms across engineering teams; partner with Finance on forecasting and unit economics. * Drive horizontal platform & infrastructure initiatives end-to-end, coordinating across engineering, security, and GTM teams as needed to unblock execution and align stakeholders. * Own structured engagement with strategic external vendors (AWS, Azure, OpenAI, Anthropic), including capacity commitments, contract optimization, escalation paths, and joint planning. * Define, measure, and report on platform & infrastructure health metrics (cost, capacity headroom, migration progress, platform adoption, reliability SLOs), and hold the org accountable for sustained improvement. * Identify systemic gaps in platform maturity, infrastructure planning, capacity, and observability; convert findings into structured multi-quarter roadmaps with clear owners, milestones, and risk surfacing. * Run the operating cadence for platform & infrastructure programs: working groups, steering reviews, exec readouts, and risk reviews. Make program status legible to leadership without creating overhead for engineering teams. * Partner with senior ICs and EMs to evaluate architectural tradeoffs, sequence dependencies across teams, and unblock execution when programs hit friction. ## Related Videos - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [5 steps for running a Kubernetes environment at scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/88-5-steps-for-running-a-kubernetes-environment-at-scale) - [Debugging in the Dark](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1658-debugging-in-the-dark) - [Software Engineering Social Connection: Yubo’s lean approach to scaling an 80M-user infrastructure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1583-software-engineering-social-connection-yubo-s-lean-approach-to-scaling-an-80m-user-infrastructure) - [Platform Engineering vs. DevOps Why not both?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/885-platform-engineering-vs-devops-why-not-both) ## Related Articles - [From developer to manager – what does it take to become an engineering manager?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/42-from-developer-to-manager-what-does-it-take-to-become-an-engineering-manager) - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Should Tech Managers Be Developers First?
