The role
We’re hiring a Lead API Platform Engineer to join our Application Delivery team within Platform Engineering. This is an individual contributor (IC) technical lead role, owning the API gateway experience end-to-end — from pre-production through production.

- Strengthen API security: Implement and promote API security standards, including OAuth2, JWT, and SAML, along with access controls and encryption.
- Improve reliability and performance: Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize using Datadog. Tune latency, caching behavior, and rate limiting to support high-performing APIs.
- Automate delivery: Build and maintain automation and CI/CD workflows (using GitHub Actions) for gateway deployments and policy/configuration updates.
- Enable great developer experience: Improve how teams build and test APIs by standardizing gateway onboarding, providing self-service patterns, and supporting reliable local development workflows (e.g., local gateway tooling, mock/test routes, and clear “run it locally” docs).
- Shape work for success: define and decompose scope into ready-to-build requirements (clear user stories and acceptance criteria), aligning on delivery standards, and proactively removing blockers to keep execution on track.
- Support production operations: Provide L2/L3 support, participate in an on-call rotation, lead root-cause analysis, and drive permanent fixes.
- Collaborate and document: Partner with development, QA, security, and architecture teams. Create clear documentation, SOPs, and onboarding materials to help teams ship confidently.
What we’re looking for
- Bachelor’s degree (Master’s degree desired) typically in Computer Science, Management Information Systems, Mathematics, Business Analytics or another technically strong program.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience operating API gateways in production environments (especially Kong)
- Strong API fundamentals (REST, JSON) and security best practices
- Experience working in a public cloud environment, plus solid networking knowledge (DNS, firewalls, load balancers) – Azure preferred but not required
- Comfort scripting and/or coding in one or more languages (e.g., Python, Shell, Java, Node.js)
- Familiarity with DevOps/Agile practices, Docker/Kubernetes/Helm, and Terraform (or other IaC tools)
- Clear communication skills and a collaborative mindset in a fast-moving environment
