We’re building something ambitious: a federated Integration Platform that gives developers and data teams intuitive, self‑service way to consume, with real‑time insights—all wrapped in secure, scalable automation.If you love creating frictionless engineering experiences, designing systems that “just work,” and turning complex platform capabilities into simple, joyful interfaces, you’ll feel right at home.Security matters deeply here—every workflow, every policy, every interaction. You’ll help bake in security-by-design while still keeping things fast and developer-friendly.What will you doLead with experience and systems thinking: You’ll create the core elements of the Integration Platform—modular interfaces, intuitive onboarding flows, clear access patterns, and simple ways to understand platform health and status. Your focus will be on making complicated things feel easy and predictableTurn complexity into clarity: You’ll design self-service experiences and workflows that abstract away the hard parts of provisioning, accessing, and integrating with platforms. You’ll translate logs, events, and orchestration outputs into signals that humans can understand instantlyCreate patterns that scale: You’ll collaborate with platform users across divisions to define standards, shared contracts, and consistent ways of working. Your work will help dozens of teams move faster, avoid duplication, and trust the systems they rely onGive people insight and confidence: You’ll help enable meaningful dashboards, telemetry views, and signals that tell users what’s happening, why it matters, and what they should do next—whether they’re engineers, analysts, or leaderExplore better ways of working with AI: You’ll look for opportunities to augment engineering experiences with AI: better guidance, smarter recommendations, clearer context, and more natural interactions. And you’ll help ensure this is done responsibly and securelyBe a partner and facilitator: You’ll work closely with architects, engineers to understand their needs, align on problems, test ideas quickly, and close the loop with clear updates. You’ll help create a working culture that values communication, curiosity, and continuous learningProvide leadership through clarity and empathy: You’ll guide others toward better UX patterns, stronger security practices, and more coherent platform standards.
