Platform Engineer

Platform Engineering Lead will drive the design, development, and continuous evolution of scalable, secure, and high-performance platforms that support our OT cybersecurity services. This leader will be responsible for building a modular, multi-tenant technology foundation that supports rapid solution delivery, strong compliance postures (e.g., IEC 62443, NIST), and robust integrations with SIEM, IAM, EDR, and OEM tools.

This role blends hands-on platform architecture leadership with strategic thinking, governance, vendor management, and team building across DevSecOps, infrastructure, and engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications

1. Education

   :

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.

• Additional specialization in Cybersecurity, Cloud Architecture, or Systems Engineering is a strong plus.

1. Certifications

   (preferred, not mandatory):

• Cloud Certifications: AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, or GCP Professional Cloud Architect.

• Security Certifications: CISSP, CISM, or CISA (to demonstrate security leadership).

• DevOps / Architecture: TOGAF, Kubernetes CKA/CKAD, or HashiCorp Terraform Certification.

• Compliance: IEC 62443 awareness, or training in NIST/ISO 27001/GRC frameworks.

Key Requirements

• 15+ years of experience in technology architecture or platform engineering, with minimum 5 years in leadership roles.

• Deep expertise in cloud-native architecture, DevSecOps, SRE, and cybersecurity integrations.

• Experience in microservices, modular platforms, and container orchestration (K8s, Docker).

• Strong exposure to at least two public clouds (AWS/Azure/GCP).
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure automation, secrets management, and release pipelines.
• Familiarity with compliance standards such as IEC 62443, NIST CSF, ISO 27001 is a plus.
• Prior experience in OT/ICS cybersecurity, IT-OT convergence, or critical infrastructure platforms is desirable.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams, communicate with CXOs, and manage strategic vendors.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the architecture and engineering of modular, multi-tenant cybersecurity platforms for IT/OT convergence.
• Build and scale cloud-native infrastructures using AWS/Azure/GCP, ensuring 99.9% uptime, horizontal scalability, and security-by-design principles.
• Implement and govern robust CI/CD, IaC (e.g., Terraform), containerization (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker), and monitoring frameworks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK).
• Ensure platform readiness for integration with cybersecurity tools including SIEM, SOAR, EDR/XDR, IAM, PKI, and asset discovery platforms.
• Drive DevSecOps maturity across environments, ensuring best practices in secure coding, automated testing, secrets management, and release pipelines.
• Define platform engineering OKRs, build sprint governance, and lead agile delivery teams across infrastructure, tooling, and backend development.

• Collaborate with Product, Delivery, OT Engineering, and GRC teams to ensure platform alignment to business goals, service offerings, and compliance needs.

• Lead vendor evaluations, tool benchmarking, and integration programs with OEM cybersecurity, cloud, and automation partners.
