What you'll do:
We are seeking a Sr. Platform Engineer I to join our Platform Engineering team, focused on Developer Experience. In this role, you will design and build the tools, workflows, and golden paths that make engineers across the organization more productive. Your work will directly shape how teams build, test, ship, and operate software, removing friction, codifying best practices, and enabling self-service at scale.

In this role you will:
- Define and maintain golden paths for service creation, including service templates, starter kits, and scaffolding tools that let teams go from zero to production-ready with minimal friction
- Own developer onboarding workflows and maintain high-quality platform documentation
- Establish and evolve CI/CD pipeline standards across the organization
- Design release automation patterns, including rollout safety mechanisms such as canary deployments, progressive delivery, and automated rollbacks
- Build and maintain internal platform portals, reusable infrastructure modules, and paved-road workflows
- Enable product engineering teams to provision resources, configure environments, and ship features independently without reliance on other teams
- Champion platform adoption through clear documentation, enablement sessions, and a consultative approach
- Measure developer satisfaction and platform adoption metrics to continuously improve the experience
- Partner with product engineering, infrastructure, and operations teams to ensure platform tooling meets cross-platform needs
