As a Senior Platform Engineer on Dedrone’s Infrastructure Services team, you will accelerate product development by building and maintaining the core infrastructure, tooling, and automation systems that engineering teams rely on. You will shape the CI/CD ecosystem, strengthen observability platforms, and deliver scalable, secure cloud infrastructure. This role enables deep technical ownership and provides significant opportunities to influence engineering standards, developer experience, and future platform architecture across the product teams.

Establish and promote engineering best practices across development standards, CI/CD patterns, infrastructure templates, and reusable tooling
Partner closely with product engineering teams to understand bottlenecks, reduce toil, and increase overall developer velocity
Contribute to security-focused improvements across the platform CI/CD, IAM, secrets management, and cloud resource hardening
Collaborate with Axon platform, infrastructure, and security teams to align workflows and adopt shared best practices
Deliver measurable improvements to system reliability, automation, and infrastructure scalability

Requirements:

3+ years of relevant experience in cloud infrastructure, developer tooling, backend engineering, or platform/DevOps roles
Proficiency with modern cloud and automation tooling, including CI/CD pipeline development, AWS services (EC2, ECS/EKS, S3, IAM, CloudWatch), Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or AWS CDK), and containerization using Docker and orchestration tools such as ECS, EKS, or Kubernetes
Strong engineering fundamentals, including backend development experience (e.g., Java, Go, Python), as well as Linux, Bash, and scripting skills
Experience implementing observability practices—including metrics, logging, and tracing
A collaborative approach grounded in Axon’s values—showing ownership, candor, customer success, the courage to boldly go, and the ambition to aim far and win right
