For more information, visit: https://arcadia.io --- ## Why This Role Is Important As Arcadia grows—and as AI improves—we need fewer, better building blocks: less per-team glue and more self-service capabilities so engineers can spend their time on customers instead of plumbing. This is platform engineering at Arcadia. The role could also be titled **Developer Platform**, **DevEx**, **DevProd**, or **SRE**. You’ll help build and operate: - A **petabyte-size lakehouse** - **Client-facing applications** running on **Kubernetes** This role spans both areas and reports directly to the Engineering VP. --- ## What Success Looks Like Arcadia engineers and their agents rely on platform building blocks—services and pipelines, databases, queues, and storage—delivered with sensible defaults and built-in capabilities such as: - Logging, metrics, tracing - Alerts and encryption - Access controls and backups - Cost tags Teams can change their own: - Pipelines - Environments - Alerts - SLOs When something breaks, the owning team: - Sees it first - Traces it to the change that caused it - Rolls it back themselves They also get visibility into: - Delivery numbers - Cloud spend Platform upgrades reach teams as a **merged pull request**, not a checklist. Finally, engineers take the paved road to production, and platform engineers focus on building capabilities—not working tickets.
