Engineering @ MergeCo

At MergeCo, we aren't just merging two companies; we are building a unified, scalable foundation for the future of our industry. Our IT philosophy is rooted in Governance over Administration. We don't just "fix tickets"—we build the secure, automated "rails" that allow our Engineering and Business teams to run their "trains" at high velocity.

We are seeking a Senior Site Reliability & Platform Engineer who views infrastructure as code and security as a baseline requirement. You will be a key architect in defining our shared responsibility model, ensuring that while we provide the platform, the platform provides the guardrails. In this role, you will be a systems thinker who understands that IT is an enabler, focusing on building robust platforms rather than performing arbitrary third-party integrations.

Day in the Life

• Platform Engineering: Design and maintain our core Kubernetes and Cloud Native environments within GCP, AWS, and Azure, ensuring high availability, scalability, security, and seamless deployment patterns.
• Observability & Reliability: Implement a comprehensive observability stack to provide deep insights into system health, performance, and security posture.
• Cross-Cloud Strategy: While GCP is our primary home, you will provide expertise in integrating and bridging legacy or specialized workloads in Azure and AWS.
• Automation & Lifecycle: Build automated, repeatable processes for provisioning and deprovisioning infrastructure, reducing manual toil to near zero.
• The "Rails" Philosophy: Develop self-service tools that empower DevOps and Engineering teams to manage their own tool configurations while remaining compliant with MergeCo security standards.

Who You Are

• A Systems Thinker: You understand that IT is an enabler. You focus on building robust platforms rather than performing arbitrary third-party integrations.
• Kubernetes Expert: You have deep experience managing production-grade clusters (GKE preferred) and understand the intricacies of service meshes, networking, and container security.
• Cloud Polyglot: GCP is your native tongue, but you are fluent enough in Azure and AWS to navigate complex multi-cloud environments.
• Security-First Mindset: You treat security as a core feature of reliability, not an afterthought.
• Collaborative Partner: You prefer "Partnership" over "Gatekeeping," working with business units to define where the platform ends and their application
