Role Description
We're looking for a Platform Engineer to own and architect Ditto's CI/CD infrastructure. In this role, you'll build the deployment platform that every engineer at Ditto relies on—from automated quality gates to progressive rollout systems. This is a rare opportunity to have end-to-end ownership of critical infrastructure that directly multiplies the productivity and safety of our entire engineering organization. You'll define how we ship software at scale, balancing velocity with reliability, and building systems that make deploying feel effortless and safe.
What You'll Be Up To…
- Own the architecture and evolution of Ditto's entire CI/CD platform, from code commit to production deployment
- Design and build automated quality enforcement systems, including code coverage analysis, security vulnerability scanning, and compliance tracking infrastructure
- Create deployment safety mechanisms including automated validation pipelines, progressive rollout frameworks, and intelligent automatic rollback systems
- Optimize deployment pipeline infrastructure to enable rapid, confident releases across our microservices architecture
- Partner with engineering teams across the organization to understand pain points and evolve the platform based on real developer needs
- Establish the technical vision and standards for how Ditto approaches deployment safety, quality automation, and production risk management
What Helps You Thrive…
- Deep experience building and scaling CI/CD infrastructure, deployment pipelines, or developer platform tooling in production environments
- Strong systems thinking—you see CI/CD as a cohesive platform, not disconnected tools, and can architect for long-term evolution
- Track record of driving adoption through empathy and pragmatism—you understand that great platform engineering is as much about developer experience as technical excellence
- Comfort operating under visibility and production responsibility—deployment infrastructure is mission-critical and you're energized, not intimidated, by that
- Excellent stakeholder management skills—you can influence without authority and build trust with teams who depend on your systems
- A proactive and curious attitude about how AI can support your role through automation, ideation, or more thoughtful decision-making
Great-to-Haves…
- Experience implementing progressive delivery patterns (canary deployments, feature flags, traffic shaping) at scale
- Background in SRE, production operations, or incident management that informs your approach to deployment safety
- Prior work in high-growth or hypergrowth environments where you've scaled infrastructure alongside rapid team expansion
- Familiarity with modern deployment ecosystems (Kubernetes, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Harness or similar) and observability platforms
- Experience establishing quality standards and getting engineering organizations to adopt them enthusiastically
- Open source contributions or speaking experience related to DevOps, platform engineering, or deployment automation
