About The Position

We are looking for an experienced Staff Platform Engineer to join the Veeam Data Cloud (VDC) engineering team, working on the FedRAMP-compliant version of our SaaS product. The mission of the Platform Engineering team is to provide a secure, reliable, and easy-to-use platform that enables our teams to build, test, deploy, and monitor the VDC product. As a member of the team, you will help build and maintain the software that automates our software delivery and orchestrates our infrastructure. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with cloud infrastructure and software development experience to help build the world's most successful, modern data protection platform. The ideal candidate will have held similar roles in a rapidly growing SaaS company. This is not a traditional DevOps position — it's a software engineering role focused on infrastructure, tooling, developer experience, and software delivery. At the Staff level, you will set technical direction for the platform, take on the problems that cross team boundaries, and raise the bar for how the whole engineering organization ships software.

Requirements

8+ years of software engineering experience, including significant time building platform, infrastructure, or developer tooling as a software product.
A track record of technical leadership at scope beyond a single team — designs you owned end to end, and engineers who grew because you were there.
Experience automating infrastructure through code using technologies such as Pulumi or Terraform.
Experience with GitHub Actions.
Experience with a breadth and depth of public cloud services, especially in Azure.
Understanding of the principles of operational excellence.
Experience building and supporting enterprise SaaS products.
Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly and implement those technologies in a pragmatic manner.
Ability to scope down complex technical problems and not get blocked behind decisions or dependencies.
Strong programming ability in at least one language (Go, Python, Java, C/C++, etc.); Go is the primary language of our platform.
Understanding and experience implementing secure design principles in the cloud.
A strong bias toward action and direct, frequent communication.
Comfortable and competent in written communication, both technical and other.
Passionate about automation.

Responsibilities

Write and maintain code to automate our public cloud infrastructure, software delivery pipeline, and other enablement tools.
Write and maintain code for internally consumed platform services.
Set technical direction for the platform: lead design on multi-quarter, cross-team initiatives and make the build-versus-buy and architecture calls that others build on.
Identify the highest-leverage problems in developer experience and delivery — the ones no single team owns — and drive them to a solution.
Raise the technical bar across the team through design review, code review, and mentoring — multiplying the output of the engineers around you.
Partner with product engineering, security, and compliance to make the paved path the fastest path, including in our FedRAMP environment.
Document system design, configurations, processes, and decisions to support our async, distributed team culture.
Collaborate with a team of remote engineers to build the platform.
Work with a modern technology stack based on containers, serverless infrastructure, Kubernetes, Golang, Vue, public cloud services, and other cutting-edge technologies in the SaaS domain.
