Senior Platform Engineer (Multi-Cloud & AI Adoption)

@HYVE Solutions, missions to help customers, business partners, and employees achieve success through shared goals, strategies, resources and technology solutions.

Senior Platform Engineer (Multi-Cloud & AI Adoption)

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you are the technical architect of our Internal Developer Platform (IDP). You don't just manage cloud resources; you build the "Golden Paths" that allow developers to deploy and scale their own services autonomously. You will bridge the gap between complex infrastructure and developer productivity, with a specific focus on enabling multi-cloud agility and AI service adoption (Azure AI, AWS Bedrock).

Your mission is to reduce the "cognitive load" on software teams by abstracting away infrastructure complexity through automation, self-service portals, and robust CI/CD.

Key Responsibilities

• Platform as a Product: Treat the platform as a product for our internal developers. Gather feedback, identify bottlenecks, and build self-service tools that eliminate manual tickets.
• Infrastructure & AI Orchestration: Design and scale multi-cloud architectures (Azure, AWS, GCP). Specifically, architect the foundational infrastructure for AI/ML services (e.g., Azure AI Foundry, AWS Bedrock) to ensure they are secure and accessible.
• Automated "Golden Paths": Develop and maintain high-quality Terraform modules and Ansible playbooks that serve as the standard blueprints for the organization.
• Developer Empowerment: Build and integrate with Internal Developer Portals (like Port or Backstage) to provide a single pane of glass for service catalogs, scorecards, and automated resource provisioning.
• CI/CD & GitOps: Modernize our delivery pipelines in Azure DevOps/GitHub, ensuring that infrastructure changes are version-controlled, tested, and deployed with zero downtime.
• Observability & Reliability: Implement "Self-Healing" infrastructure and advanced monitoring (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana) so developers have full visibility into their own services.
• Strategic Collaboration: Act as a consultant to business units, challenging technical assumptions and translating high-level business needs into elegant, scalable technology execution.

Technical Requirements

1. Multi-Cloud & AI Infrastructure

• Cloud Proficiency: Deep hands-on experience in Azure and GCP or AWZ (GCP is a plus).
• AI Stack: Hands-on experience deploying and managing cognitive services (Azure AI Foundry, AWS Bedrock, or Vertex AI).
• Systems: Strong Linux (RHEL, Ubuntu) and Windows Host administration via automated configuration management.

2. Automation & IaC (Mastery Level)

• Terraform: Advanced knowledge of Terraform data structures, functions, and state management. Experience building versioned, reusable modules from scratch.
• Ansible: Mastery of Playbooks, Roles, Collections, and Dynamic Inventories. Experience with Ansible Tower or RedHat Satellite for enterprise-scale configuration.
• Scripting: Fluency in Python, Bash, or PowerShell for custom automation and API integrations.

3. Delivery & Governance

• DevOps Tools: Advanced use of Azure DevOps (Pipelines, Repos, Boards) and GitHub Actions.
• Security & Compliance: Ability to bake security (Azure Policies, Custom Roles, Encryption) directly into the IaC templates and platform workflows.

Soft Skills & "Port-Inspired" Mindset

• User-Centricity: You view developers or businesses as your customers. You are passionate about improving Developer Experience (DX).
• Analytical Depth: Ability to decompose high-level information into modular tasks and distinguish a user's request from their true underlying need.
• Continuous Improvement: A drive to eliminate technical debt and move toward "Agentic" engineering where AI and automation handle routine operational tasks.

Why is this role different:

Unlike a traditional Sysadmin or DevOps role, this position focuses on abstraction. You aren't just building a server; you are building the capability for a developer to spin up a compliant, secure AI-ready environment with the click of a button.

You will have the autonomy to build "greenfield" infrastructure and influence the cloud strategy of a forward-thinking organization. This role offers the unique opportunity to merge traditional Platform Engineering with the burgeoning field of AI Infrastructure
