We're looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to work embedded in the platform engineering team of a global automotive client.The team runs the CI/CD platform for a large application portfolio: thousands of services, onboarded through a self-service platform and supported 24x5. You'll build and run the pipelines that application teams depend on every day. When something breaks, you'll own it until it's fixed. What will you do? * Build, maintain and improve CI/CD pipelines and reusable pipeline templates used by hundreds of application teams. * Support and extend the self-service onboarding platform: the portal, its backend APIs, automated pull requests across repositories, and GitOps-based deployments. * Take part in the on-call roster. Respond quickly to production pipeline failures, debug to root cause, and keep stakeholders updated until the issue is resolved. * Work directly with application teams to understand their requirements, clarify gaps, and get their services onboarded. * Automate repetitive work using Python and Terraform. * Document how the platform works, validated against the live system, so the wider team can troubleshoot independently. * Contribute to platform improvements such as CI/CD migrations (e.g. Tekton to GitHub Actions), reliability metrics, and AI-assisted engineering tools. How do you work? This matters as much as your technical skills. * You take end-to-end ownership of your work. Nobody needs to chase you for progress. * You raise blockers early and ask clarifying questions before passing work on. * You treat production issues with urgency. * You share proactive, written updates. * You learn a new system by getting hands-on with it, not by waiting to be walked through it. * You're comfortable working embedded in a client team while representing Transcloud's standards. ### Requirements Must-have skills: * 3+ years in DevOps or platform engineering, with at least 2 years building and running CI/CD at scale. * Hands-on production experience with Kubernetes. OpenShift is strongly preferred (namespaces, RBAC, routes, operators). * Kubernetes-native CI/CD. Tekton is preferred; GitHub Actions or Jenkins experience is also valuable. * GitOps tooling such as Argo CD or Flux, and deployment strategies such as blue-green and canary. * Solid Google Cloud experience: GKE, IAM, VPC networking, Artifact Registry, Cloud Logging and Monitoring. * Infrastructure-as-code with Terraform, including building reusable modules. * Python for automation, and comfort reading backend code and REST APIs. * Strong fundamentals in Linux, Git, Docker and cloud networking/security. * A proven ability to troubleshoot pipeline and deployment failures under production pressure. Good to have: * Google Cloud Professional certification (Cloud DevOps Engineer or Cloud Architect). * CKA/CKAD or a Red Hat OpenShift certification. * Experience migrating between CI/CD platforms. * Experience with internal developer platforms or self-service portals. * DORA metrics, observability, or software supply chain security (SBOMs, image signing, policy-as-code). * Exposure to AWS or Azure. ### Benefits What do we offer? * A highly competitive salary in line with industry standards. * Health insurance. * Flexible working hours. * A 5-day work week and an informal dress code. * Direct exposure to enterprise clients, and career growth in platform engineering.
