Role Overview

Design, build, and operate cloud infrastructure and developer platform for a rapidly scaling AI-first mobile platform. Partner with Director of Product, Lead Security Engineer, and mobile engineering leadership to connect platform reliability to product velocity and security posture.

Own cloud infrastructure design and operations, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipeline design and release engineering, container orchestration and platform engineering, observability, monitoring, and site reliability, DevSecOps and compliance automation, and developer experience and technical leadership.

Why It Might Be a Fit

Strong technical depth, product-minded approach to internal tooling, and communication skills to champion engineering excellence across the organisation. 5+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or site reliability engineering, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead capacity.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or site reliability engineering, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead capacity
  • Deep, demonstrable expertise with at least one major cloud provider (AWS strongly preferred) and solid working knowledge of a second (Azure or GCP)
  • Infrastructure as Code proficiency: Terraform is required. Experience with CloudFormation, Pulumi, or CDK is a plus
  • CI/CD experience: hands-on design and operation of pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, or equivalent tools across multiple workload types
  • Strong Kubernetes experience, including cluster management, Helm chart authoring, RBAC, network policies, and workload auto-scaling in a production cloud environment
  • Proficiency in Python for automation and tooling; comfort with Bash/shell scripting for operational tasks
  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals — DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, load balancing, CDN, VPC design, and private connectivity patterns
  • Experience implementing observability solutions using tools such as Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, CloudWatch, or equivalent platforms
  • Practical knowledge of container security, secrets management, and cloud IAM patterns, with experience working alongside a security engineering function
  • Strong communication skills — able to write clear documentation, present technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders, and lead engineering conversations with confidence

Benefits

  • Flexible hours to support global teams
  • 10–15% travel (domestic & international)
  • EOE (Equal Opportunity Employer)
  • YPO takes pride in supporting a diverse workforce and demonstrates this through its policies and practices
