About the role
As our Senior Platform Engineer, Connectivity, you will play a critical role in securely and efficiently onboarding customer facilities into our cloud-hybrid platform services. You will oversee the design and implementation of scalable infrastructure automation, tooling, Linux systems, and networking workflows, and partner closely with the Connectivity and broader engineering teams to ensure our platform remains resilient, secure, and ready for the mission. Let’s Go – Catalyze the Change You Seek: We don't wait for the industry to change; we drive it. We seek to understand why things are the way they are, but we never use “the way it’s always been” as an excuse. We aren't afraid to change course when the data or our mission demands it.
