Cloud Platform Engineer

As a Cloud Platform Engineer at CSIT, you will research, explore and adopt modern cloud technologies to continuously evolve and modernize on-premise platform services. You will join the Runtime Platform team - responsible for delivering secure, reliable, and scalable platform services that abstract away infrastructure complexity, to enable software engineers to deploy and operate cloud-native applications efficiently while maintaining strong security and compliance standards. Our team operates a multi-tenanted platform services that has included many enhancements customized for our developers' unique use-cases to improve productivity. These include 3rd-party technologies as well as bespoke workflow enhancements Responsibilities • Design and build self-service platform, such as Message Queue service, Observability service, etc, that would enable developers to focus on coding, testing, and managing their cloud-native applications. • Automate and simplify lifecycle operations, such as provisioning and scaling using Infrastructure-as-Code and GitOps workflow. • Implement observability and alerting systems for the platform services, using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or Elastic Observability to meet service-level objectives (SLOs). • Collaborate with security teams to integrate and enforce security controls and compliance requirements of the platform services. • Work with application teams to improve platform usability, streamline onboarding, and reduce operational toil. • Respond to incidents and perform post-incident reviews, driving continuous improvement and operational excellence. • Contribute to the reliability engineering culture, fostering shared responsibility for system availability and performance. • Collaborate with cross functional teams to define platform service requirements.

• Background in Computer Engineering, Computer Science or related field. • Strong programming or scripting experience (e.g. HCL, YAML, Javascript, Python, or Bash). • Good understanding of Linux systems, containers, networking fundamentals and distributed system operations. • At least 1-3 years of hands-on experience operating cloud services in production Familiar with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and configuration management (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Helm). Experience implementing observability and monitoring of large-scale platforms.
