About the role
Lead and grow the CloudOps (Platform & DevEx) team , providing clarity, coaching, mentorship, and a strong sense of purpose.
Build and evolve paved paths for service creation, deployment, observability, and operations — defining “the Ellevation way” to build software.
Improve developer experience across the stack: container workflows, repo templates, CI/CD automation, observability defaults, and internal tooling.
Stabilize and enhance the Cloud Development Environment (CDE) for .NET Framework development while guiding the organization toward long-term modernization and retirement of legacy systems.
Drive modernization of legacy infrastructure and help the team shift from “pets vs. cattle” to scalable, reliable, well-automated patterns.
Partner with product engineering teams to understand friction, remove obstacles, and co-create better workflows and tools.
Define and measure DevEx outcomes using frameworks like SPACE, focusing on satisfaction, flow, clarity, and feedback loops.
Collaborate with Security on guardrails and secure defaults while ensuring CloudOps remains an enablement-focused team, not a gatekeeper.
Promote platform thinking and cultural change — helping the team build confidence, question assumptions, and engage proactively with partners across engineering.
Manage vendor relationships , infrastructure costs, and resourcing for the platform surface areas you own.
