[Hiring] Senior Platform Engineer @Solace

Role Description

Good plumbing is quiet and invisible, and so is good infrastructure. As a Senior Platform Engineer at Solace, you will join our platform engineering team and help build the infrastructure powering the future of health care. You enable product and data engineers to move aggressively and deploy daily, build safeguards to autonomously recover from failures, and fix things when they can't.

You are a generalist who can work both independently and as part of a team, spanning high-level architecture and low-level foundations. You are curious and always learning. You look deeper than the surface at how systems work, how they fail, and how they can self-heal. You take pride in your craft, have impeccable communication skills, and you absorb feedback exceptionally well. You aren't afraid to make mistakes and learn more from them. Above all, you enjoy taking ownership and are stifled by large organizations.

• Assess risk and impact for changes to our live environment
• Join our on-call rotation
• Troubleshoot problems emerging from complex interactions of technology, governance, and people

• Comfortable with multiple programming languages
• Experience with DevOps practices
