Qualifications

The ideal candidate will possess extensive experience in system architecture, strong knowledge of traffic engineering principles, and a deep understanding of API management and CDN technologies. Proficiency in automation tools, observability frameworks, and CI/CD practices is essential, along with a proven track record of enhancing developer productivity. Strong collaboration skills and the ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment are crucial.

About the job

Role Overview: We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Staff Platform Engineer to enhance our Developer Productivity & Platforms team. This pivotal role combines traffic engineering (including API gateway, CDN, and service-to-service routing) with essential functions like automation, observability, reliability engineering, continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD), and internal tools to boost developer productivity.

In this role, you will manage critical systems that oversee API traffic—both external (north-south) and internal (east-west)—in a global, multi-cloud setting. You will design robust routing systems, establish edge integrations with CDNs, and implement observability mechanisms to ensure that your contributions are secure, debuggable, and automated.

This hands-on position offers significant visibility and influence. You will collaborate with platform, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), and developer experience teams to ensure that our infrastructure is dependable, observable, and user-friendly—from traffic management to deployment and production operations.

A key aspect of your role will be to design and construct a unified traffic abstraction layer—an essential platform that links backend services across various computing environments to their respective CDN configurations (e.g., Akamai, Fastly). This framework will centralize control over routing, maintain a metadata inventory, track configurations, and enable automated failover across CDNs. This capability is currently non-existent and will be developed from scratch.

About the Team:
This is a unique opportunity to design a foundational component of the company’s traffic and routing infrastructure. You'll tackle complex challenges at scale—ranging from evolving our API gateway stack to creating a powerful traffic abstraction platform that facilitates reliable, high-performance delivery across multiple clouds and CDNs.

Your contributions will directly affect how services are exposed, secured, and monitored across the organization, making this one of the most significant engineering positions within the company.
