Senior Software Development Engineer - DevOps

Role Summary: We’re looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our Developer Productivity & Platforms group. This role blends traffic engineering (API gateway, CDN, service-to-service routing) with core responsibilities, including automation, observability, reliability engineering, CI/CD workflows, and internal tooling that accelerates developer efficiency.

You’ll own critical systems responsible for managing API traffic — both north-south (external ingress) and east-west (internal service-to-service communication) — across a global, multi-cloud environment. You’ll architect resilient routing systems, edge integrations with CDNs, and observability hooks that ensure everything you build is secure, debuggable, and automated.

This is a hands-on role with high visibility and impact. You’ll work across platform, SRE, and developer experience teams to ensure the infrastructure is reliable, observable, and developer-friendly — from traffic routing to deployments to production operations.

One of your key responsibilities will also be to design and build a unified traffic abstraction layer — a foundational platform that maps backend services deployed across various compute environments to their respective configurations on CDNs (e.g., Akamai, Fastly). This framework will centralize control over routing, metadata inventory, configuration tracking, and automated failover across CDNs. This capability does not currently exist and will be built from the ground up.

About the team: This is a rare opportunity to architect a foundational layer of the company’s traffic and routing infrastructure. You’ll be solving complex problems at scale — from evolving our API gateway stack to building a powerful traffic abstraction platform and enabling reliable, high-performance delivery across multiple clouds and CDNs.

Your work will directly impact how services are exposed, secured, and observed across the company, making this one of the most impactful engineering roles in the organization.
