[Remote] Staff Platform Engineer

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Veeam is a data and AI trust company specializing in data resilience and security posture management. The Staff Platform Engineer will build and maintain software that automates cloud infrastructure, software delivery, and platform services for the FedRAMP-compliant Veeam Data Cloud. The role sets technical direction, drives cross-team platform initiatives, and improves developer experience, reliability, security, and delivery practices.

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

Skills

• 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
