- You will be a core member of the Cloud Modernization initiative, a high-impact engineering function responsible for transforming our technology backbone into a modern, cloud-native platform, while also accelerating how we use AI to improve engineering velocity, reliability, and customer outcomes by enabling safe, governed adoption of GenAI, building agentic systems, and embedding AI-assisted capabilities into our platforms and workflows.
- You will operate at the intersection of cloud architecture and enterprise modernization, leading critical initiatives to migrate, modernize, and re-architect legacy platforms into scalable, secure, and highly automated cloud-native systems.
- You will introduce AI-enabled capabilities to solve engineering and business problems by identifying high-value use cases, enabling AI adoption and AI-led development practices across teams, and delivering measurable outcomes.
- You will build and ship agentic systems that can plan, execute, and collaborate with humans safely with robust controls, and help build core AI capabilities to scale adoption.
- You will lead initiatives from a technical front, defining target architectures, establishing modernization patterns, and driving execution across engineering teams. You will design and implement cloud-native solutions, modern infrastructure platforms, and secure cloud environments that can support global-scale workloads.
