Job Description
Who We Are
Standardization and automation is the only way to efficiently scale cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) offerings to meet the growing needs of our customers. Codified infrastructure ensures adherence to standards, provides insight into drift detection, and guarantees consistent infrastructure and application delivery. The Platform Development and Automation Engineering team's Infrastructure-as-Code platforms empower our stakeholders to provision and maintain consistent environments across different implementations and lifecycle stages. Our frameworks enable high-velocity configuration changes at cloud scale while ensuring a verifiable, repeatable, and dependable infrastructure fleet.
