Job Description Summary

Flexential is hiring a Principal Platform Engineer in the IT organization to plan roadmaps, establish requirements, develop and operationally manage platform technologies including Observability, DevOps, ITSM and Integrations. Current platform initiatives include building a next-gen OpenTelemetry observability platform for 40+ data center facilities and platforms using a LGTM stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir); and enabling secure high-velocity SDLC capability enabling paved pathways, engg excellence measurements and devsecops across multiple development teams.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering management and hands-on technical work. You will lead a small team of platform engineers, create/capture requirements, establish and own technical planning and implementation, and be accountable for platform reliability, security, and delivery timelines. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role — the platforms you build will be foundational to Flexential's IT services, as well as enable AIOps and AI infrastructure.

Own, enhance and operate critical IT platform technologies e.g Boomi for integrations, AWS for Cloud environments, including their hosted infrastructure.
Establish and enforce platform security posture: secrets management via CyberArk/Conjur, RBAC, mTLS, compliance boundary design, and zero inbound telemetry architecture.
Build and integrate ITSM capabilities for various platforms e.g automated incident creation, CI enrichment, and CMDB correlation.
Define and implement extensibility patterns including AIOps: e.g anomaly detection hooks, event correlation pipeline design, and integration with future ML/AI tooling.
Partner with other IT and business teams for App Dev, requirements capture, delivery validation and integration needs.
Represent platform engineering in cross-functional architecture reviews and executive-level program updates.
Perform other management and technical duties as required and assigned for team and operational resilience e.g team building, on-call rotation, etc.
Travel maybe required to team or project events.
