- Construct foundational automation supporting dynamic greenfield environments, including provisioning domains and sanitizing credentials
- Work together on recovery architecture design, failover planning, and patterns for isolating environments
- At least 3 years of applicable experience working as a Platform Engineer
- A minimum of one year spent leading or managing development teams
- Practical, hands-on background working with Google Cloud Platform
