  • Build and maintain automation that improves operational outcomes, such as guardrails, health checks, drift detection, remediation automation, and safer deployment patterns.
  • Lead architecture and design evaluations with internal partners and external vendors, assessing technical fit, security posture, and operational viability.
  • Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team.
  • Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation

 

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills:

  • Hands-on experience with Go-based services and modern CI/CD practices.
  • Experience operating workloads on AWS and Kubernetes or EKS in a production environment.
  • Practical experience with infrastructure as code using Terraform and supporting release safety through automation.
  • Strong understanding of SDLC best practices, including automated testing, change management, and vulnerability management.
  • Ability to lead through influence with no direct reports, align stakeholders, and drive issues to closure.
  • Demonstrated experience leading effective use of approved AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., for coding, code review, test acceleration, troubleshooting) with the ability to set team expectations for validating AI outputs for correctness, performance, and security.
  • Strong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, secure handling of inputs/outputs, and adherence to resiliency and security expectations; experience coaching engineers on safe, compliant adoption within delivery practices

 

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience participating in audits and or security compliance assessments, such as PCI or similar.
  • Experience with advanced Kubernetes operational patterns, including policy and guardrails, progressive delivery, service-to-service security, and multi-AZ resilience.
