Senior Infrastructure Platform Engineer

Location Details: Pune, India

At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time; others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.​

This is a hybrid position. You’ll divide your time between working remotely from your home and an office, so you should live within commuting distance. Hybrid teams may work in-office as much as a few times a week or as little as once a month or quarter, as decided by leadership. The hiring manager can share more about what hybrid work might look like for this team.

• Develop and maintain automation solutions using infrastructure-as-code, Ansible, Python, Go, and self-service capabilities to improve efficiency and reduce operational overhead
• Build and improve observability and reliability practices through monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, managing incidents, analyzing underlying causes, disaster recovery, and service health reporting
• Collaborate with security, platform, and engineering teams to strengthen infrastructure maturity, troubleshoot complex distributed systems and cloud environments, provide technical leadership and mentorship, and participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation supporting mission-critical platforms

• Experience with AI-assisted development or troubleshooting, using closed-loop workflows (generate, review, test, refine) and guardrails for sensitive data and production changes
• Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives from building through production operations, including incident response, root cause analysis, and multi-functional problem solving in complex infrastructure environments

You might also have...

• Experience with enterprise infrastructure and security technologies, including HashiCorp Vault (or similar secrets-management platforms), Linux package repositories, RPM ecosystems, GPG signing workflows, and Linux kernel live-patching solutions
• Familiarity with security and compliance practices, including host-based security controls, network segmentation, and compliance frameworks such as SOX
