If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

About Us:

We are on a mission to transform the developer experience within the Hyperforce program by building pioneering tooling through our Terraform Infrastructure Developer Experience (TIDE) team. Our team is passionate about simplifying workflows and making the public cloud accessible and "easy" for developers. We demonstrate technologies like Golang, Terraform, AWS, Kubernetes, and Spinnaker to craft well-tested, production-grade tooling that empowers developers to effortlessly deploy infrastructure.

Role Description:

As a Principal Software Engineer for the TIDE team, you will be at the forefront of creating a unified developer experience across multiple cloud providers. You will be on a remote-first team across the US, collaborating with multi-functional teams and driving the development of packaged Terraform resources and pipeline definitions to extend development teams' services. You will play a pivotal role in enhancing the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) paradigm and redefining how developers interact with cloud resources.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead in designing, developing, and maintaining well-architected, production-grade Terraform tooling.

  • Collaborate closely with other teams to understand developer difficulties and requirements, ensuring the creation of tools that simplify workflows and enhance the developer experience.

  • Write high-quality Terraform and Golang code to support packaged manifests, infrastructure deployment, and pipeline automation.

  • Explore and implement strategies for creating resources seamlessly across multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure, AliCloud, etc) to offer a unified developer experience.

  • Provide technical guidance, code reviews, and standard processes to the team members to ensure high-quality work.

  • Support customers and internal partners by solving issues, resolving queries, and providing effective solutions.

  • Cultivate a culture of innovation, independent thinking, and proactive problem-solving within the team.

  • Collaborate with teams operating in different time zones, demonstrating excellent communication and multi-functional partnership skills.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)

  • 10+ years of experience in DevOps or a similar role.

  • Proficiency in Golang and Terraform, with hands-on experience in designing and deploying cloud resources using AWS, Kubernetes, and related technologies.

  • Prior technical leadership and mentorship experience.

  • Strong understanding of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles and standard processes.

  • Experience with cloud providers such as AWS, GCP, Azure, or AliCloud.

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to drive complex technical initiatives.

  • Strong communication skills to interact effectively with developers, stakeholders, and cross-functional teams.

  • Ability to work independently, adapt to evolving priorities, and deliver results in a dynamic, remote-first environment.
