• Responsible for building platforms and frameworks to create consistent, verifiable, and automatic management of applications and infrastructure between non-production and production environments • Mentored exceptional engineers and DevOps developers on Cloud technology and practice. • Implement application security best practices throughout the agile SDLC • Foster and advocate for a DevOps culture at Perforce to ensure efficient testing, delivery, and deployment of all software artifacts • Lead the development and enhancements of our CI/CD pipeline infrastructure/tools. • Establish technical design principles and practices and drive them across all product portfolios to make operation design a must-have phase of the development lifecycle • Your daily tasks will include developing a technical design for our cloud platform, developing a framework, and working with • Dev and DevOps teams to ensure that the product meets our quality standards.

• Release ownership and release execution end-to-end across: • Major autonomy releases • Incremental/performance releases • Hotfix/safety patches • Manage branching strategy, versioning, and release cut processes • Drive release readiness and go/no-go decisions • Partner cross-functionally with Autonomy, Infra, Validation, and Fleet Ops • Act as a system owner for release readiness • Investigate and resolve complex issues arising from: • Software/hardware interactions • Distributed systems behavior • On-vehicle vs simulation discrepancies • Develop deep understanding of: • Sensor stack, middleware, autonomy stack • Compute platforms, networking, configurations • Be the go-to for: • “Why does this fail in the real world?” • “What changed between releases?” • Enforce stage-gated release framework: • Feature Complete → Code Freeze → Validation → Release Candidate • Integrate validation signals: • Simulation corpus results • Regression testing • Vehicle testing (HIL / on-road) • Ensure safety-critical issues are identified, tracked, and gated • Take initiative to find and permanently solve challenging system level issues caused by the interplay between different software and hardware components. • Collaborate and lead system-wide improvements when working with other teams without having direct ownership or management responsibility. • Assess and develop approaches that scale and improve performance in a variety of ways (e.g. CPU performance, memory usage, disk usage, network usage).

• Implements complex solutions • Mentors junior engineers • Manages technical risks • Demonstrates a clear understanding of business impact

• Monitor and analyze cloud spend across Azure, Databricks, and Snowflake (if applicable). • Build cost tracking and reporting dashboards using native tools (Azure Cost Management, Databricks Billing APIs & Dashboards, Power BI) and SQL/Python. • Develop tagging and cost-allocation frameworks to support chargeback and forecasting models. • Partner with Engineering and Infrastructure to optimize compute usage, storage tiers, and licensing. • Recommend query tuning, partitioning and caching strategies to improve performance and reduce cost-per-job on Databricks. • Support monthly budget reviews and identify trends, anomalies, and optimization opportunities. • Manage governance policies for resource provisioning and cost alerts. • Partner with Information Security to ensure FinOps practices and cost controls align with SOC2 and HIPAA compliance requirements. • Provide insights into FinOps maturity and recommend process improvements.
