This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Platform Engineer based in India.

This role is an opportunity to shape and operate large-scale cloud infrastructure powering enterprise-grade private cloud and virtualization platforms. You will work at the core of a distributed, high-availability system spanning Kubernetes, OpenStack, and multi-cloud environments. The position involves building and maintaining robust infrastructure that supports mission-critical workloads for global enterprises. You will collaborate closely with engineering teams to automate deployments, improve reliability, and enhance system performance. The environment is fast-paced, highly technical, and deeply collaborative, with strong emphasis on ownership and operational excellence. You will also contribute to improving observability, incident response, and platform resilience at scale. This is a hands-on role for engineers who enjoy solving complex infrastructure challenges in production environments.

Accountabilities:

Design, build, and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS, OCI, Kubernetes, and OpenStack environments, ensuring high availability, performance, and security.

  • Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and deployments using Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terragrunt and similar frameworks.
  • Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines in collaboration with engineering teams to enable reliable and efficient software delivery.
  • Implement and enhance observability solutions using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and related monitoring stacks.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues across infrastructure, applications, and performance layers.
  • Build internal tooling and automation scripts to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual intervention.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and incident response to ensure continuous availability of critical services.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve system design, scalability, and operational best practices.
  • Requirements:

    5–7 years of experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, or Infrastructure Engineering roles with strong cloud infrastructure expertise.

    • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including cluster management, troubleshooting, and deployment strategies.
    • Strong knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terragrunt, Ansible, or equivalent.
    • Proficiency in scripting and automation using Python or similar languages.
    • Strong programming skills in Golang or comparable backend languages.
    • Experience with Linux systems administration, debugging, and performance tuning.
    • Familiarity with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Cortex, or similar stacks.
    • Experience with CI/CD pipelines, automation practices, and incident management in production environments.
    • Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to operate in high-pressure, production-critical scenarios.
    • Excellent communication and collaboration skills in distributed engineering teams.
    • Experience with OpenStack is a strong plus.
    • Benefits:

      • Competitive compensation with equity participation.
      • Comprehensive medical coverage for employees and their families.
      • Wellness and mental health support programs.
      • Professional development support and global certification opportunities.
      • Flexible, remote-first working environment aligned with global teams.
      • Opportunity to work on large-scale, enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure.
      • Collaborative engineering culture focused on ownership, learning, and impact.
      • Exposure to modern cloud-native technologies and complex distributed systems.
