DevOps/Platform Architect (NM+)
Siemens | 54 days ago | Bangalore

You’ll make a difference by:

• Building and delivering high-performance scalable applications (along with the development team) in accordance to the partners’ quality requirements.

• Ensuring quality of the developed part of component(s) / work product(s) (conformance with development process) and its technical delivery.

• Ensuring that the project deliverable is completed based on project schedule.

• Being the technical thought leader , keeping abreast of new/emerging technology and sharing the same across the team.

• Performing regular internal technical coordination / review to ensure risk identification and to support the initiation of risk mitigation by Project Manager and all relevant project stakeholders.

1. Platform Architecture and Design

Establish architectural principles and patterns that guide platform evolution and ensure technical coherence.

Design modular, reusable, and scalable platform components (service templates, pipelines, SDKs, developer tools).

Create a vision and roadmap for platform capabilities (e.g., CI/CD as a service, infrastructure automation, self-service portals).

Define and design the internal developer platform

Architect for extensibility through plugin systems, middleware hooks, and well-defined extension points.

Design open APIs and interfaces that enable teams to customize and extend platform capabilities.

Implement composable architecture patterns that allow teams to assemble platform components to suit their specific needs.

Create extension frameworks that enable controlled customization without forking the core platform.

Establish contribution guidelines for teams to extend the platform in alignment with architectural standards.

Develop abstraction layers that shield developers from underlying infrastructure complexity while maintaining necessary flexibility.

Define decision frameworks for technology selection and architectural trade-offs within the platform ecosystem.

Create architectural decision records (ADRs) to document key platform design choices and their rationales.

Architect for interoperability with existing and future tools through standardized interfaces and protocols.

2. Developer Experience Enablement

Build and maintain self-service experiences for developers (e.g., service creation, deployments, environment setup).

Create and handle Developer Portals (like Backstage) to expose platform capabilities cleanly and intuitively.

Simplify access to cloud, CI/CD, monitoring, and operational tools.

3. Infrastructure and Automation

Define Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation) standards and best practices.

Architect multi-cloud or hybrid-cloud strategies if needed.

Automate environment provisioning, scaling, and operational tasks.

4. CI/CD and Software Delivery Optimization

Design and standardize CI/CD pipelines across teams.

Ensure the platform supports safe, fast, and reliable deployments (e.g., blue/green deployments, canary releases).

Integrate security, quality gates, and compliance checks into pipelines ("shift left").

5. Governance, Security, and Compliance

Define guardrails: enforce best practices without blocking innovation.

Architect platform security (identity management, network security, role-based access control).

Ensure compliance with audit, data privacy, and regulatory requirements where applicable.

6. Observability and Operational Excellence

Provide out-of-the-box observability: metrics, logging, tracing, alerting.

Set standards for application monitoring, reliability, and incident response.

Embed SRE/DevOps principles into the platform itself.

7. Collaboration and Evangelism

Partner with product engineering teams, SREs, security, and leadership.

Act as a bridge between infrastructure and application developers.

Mentor engineers on platform usage and platform-first thinking.

Advocate for platform adoption and improvement based on feedback.

8. Continuous Improvement

Continuously evolve platform offerings based on:

Changing business needs

Developer feedback

Emerging technologies (e.g., AI-assisted development, serverless, platform engineering best practices)

Promote "Platform as a Product" mindset — treating internal developers as customers.
