• Support ongoing cloud transformation by operating Nutanix workload infrastructure alongside cloud platforms, ensuring continuity, workload portability, and consistent management across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
• Own the Microsoft identity platform and Entra ID as foundational services, and partner with other teams on the shared underlying corporate service platforms that depend on them.
• Direct the team in building and maintaining observability capabilities including monitoring, alerting, logging, and tracing across platform environments.
• Build self-service platform capabilities that enable engineering functions across UNOS, including software engineering, quality engineering, data analytics, research, and AI/ML workloads, to provision, deploy, and operate resources in development and test environments with minimal dependency on Enterprise Technology.
• Manage and develop a team of platform and infrastructure engineers, providing technical guidance and coaching grounded in direct engineering experience.
• Build and sustain an engineering-first team culture, raising technical depth across the team in areas such as coding, automation, and platform engineering.
• Conduct performance management with clear expectations, ongoing feedback, and directness when addressing issues.
• Recruit, develop, and retain engineering talent with the coding, automation, and cloud engineering skills required to deliver platforms through code.
• Manage and report against infrastructure SLOs and SLAs, and lead resolution of platform incidents including participation in on-call rotations and providing operational support.
• Ensure disaster recovery, business continuity, and vulnerability remediation capabilities are maintained and regularly validated.
• Partner with Information Security and GRC teams on compliance assessments, audits, and technical remediation, providing engineering leadership to drive resolution and ensuring platforms are maintained in a continuous state of audit readiness.
• Manage technology vendor relationships, ensuring service levels and contractual obligations are met, and partner with procurement and finance on budget tracking, cloud spend optimization, license management, and capacity planning.
