Salesforce is looking to solve the problem of building and operating foundational systems that manage how services are deployed, operated, and monitored across Slack's infrastructure, to enable engineering teams to deliver reliable and compliant services with speed and confidence.
Requirements
- Strong software engineering fundamentals—you write clean, maintainable code and design systems that scale.
- Curiosity and a systems mindset—you're deeply interested in how platform layers and infrastructure orchestration work, and you enjoy sharing that knowledge to uplift those around you.
- A strong grasp of reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency, especially in the context of deploying and managing distributed systems.
- Hands-on experience with AWS—you're comfortable navigating complex environments and have depth in at least a few core services.
- Experience building infrastructure as code using tools like Terraform, with a preference for reusable and maintainable abstractions.
- A passion for creating platform solutions that empower engineering teams to move faster, be more reliable, and operate with confidence.
- A pragmatic approach to problem-solving, with a drive to automate and simplify operations at scale
Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end delivery of software projects that improve how services are deployed, managed, and observed across Slack's infrastructure.
- Design and build foundational orchestration systems that enable reliable, scalable, and compliant service operations.
- Develop tools that streamline continuous delivery, automate incident workflows, and track service health and reliability metrics.
- Implement platform solutions using infrastructure-as-code, automation frameworks, and AWS-native services to drive consistency and scalability.
- Collaborate closely with engineering teams to integrate platform capabilities into their workflows—empowering them to ship faster and operate more reliably.
- Contribute to and extend internal frameworks that support deployment workflows, service ownership, and lifecycle management.
- Advocate for platform efficiency and cost-conscious engineering through tooling, automation, and cross-team engagement.
