About the Role: Own platform subsystems and cross-collaborate with many teams across the organization . Not a senior engineer with a bigger title. You architect and define strategy for AI-first infrastructure, data foundations, and agent orchestration. You design patterns, influence across teams, and drive platform evolution not just execute projects or write IaC. Your work directly impacts 150+ developers and 50+ autonomous agents operating at scale, safety, and cost.

• MCP ecosystems: build secure, spec-driven Model Context Protocol servers and governance
• Knowledge & context systems: context graphs, vector stores, RAG pipelines, memory systems
• Agent orchestration: control planes, human-in-loop workflows (n8n, LangChain patterns)
• AI observability: cost models, token efficiency, agent health SLOs

Data Fabric & Foundations (Decent understanding)

• Data lakehouse architecture (Snowflake, Delta, Iceberg, LakeFormation etc)
• Data governance: lineage tracking, cost attribution, quality gates across consumers

• CI/CD design: GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, GitOps for diverse workloads
• Observability mastery: Datadog, Grafana, Sumo, OTEL, SLOs, meaningful alerts, cost tracking

Mentorship & Strategy

• Lead technical hiring and team composition decisions
• Mentor engineers on the team and help uplift the knowledge density; shape platform culture and developer advocacy on best practices
• Author architecture decisions (ADRs) that guide future choices
• Drive platform automation to reduce toil 20–30%
