Dallas, United States Sixth Street Inc Full time
The Role

Sixth Street is looking for a talented Cloud Platform Engineer interested in growing their career in a small engineering team with big goals. Being able to think on your feet while seeing the near-, mid- and long-term impact of your decisions is a must for successful candidates. You may find yourself juggling net new reference architecture builds in AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), Azure Blueprints, GCP Deployment Manager, HashiCorp Terraform, writing Identity and Access Manager (IAM) policies, building GitHub Actions (GHA) workflows, instrumenting net new code bases, deploying Cloud Custodian policies, remediating security incidents, teaching developers about AWS, GCP or Azure or working with and managing external vendors to implement net new technologies. When things get hard, the successful candidate will know when to delegate to other team members, be able to automate workflows with ease to scale themselves, when to ask for help and when to say "No." We act as One Team pushing each other towards a better tomorrow for our Sixth Street Technology Platform.

This is a full-time in office (hybrid) role based in our Dallas, Houston or Austin offices.

Core Responsibilities
  • Strong software skills. At Sixth Street we don't just write scripts, code via Stack Overflow or "monkey patch." We strive to code towards the IEEE "-ilities" and think the world would be better if others did too. We embrace the intentions behind the Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) and look for ways to build secure systems by default. Successful candidates can easily switch between various *nix shell syntaxes, the Command Line Interface (CLI) on Windows and GNU/Linux, debug Python 3.x, and understand JavaScript among other languages.
  • Makes the cloud look easy. At Sixth Street we don't look at the Cloud as hype but rather a market differentiator. Our investors expect the best And the finance sector needs better products. We're building that future in the Cloud at Sixth Street. The successful candidate needs to know AWS in and out, understand GCP and Azure, while also understanding the Cloud is not just a fractional lease data center but an Application Programming Interface (API) atop physical and real-world components we instrument to make technology look like magic.
  • Understands no one is an island. Sixth Street Engineering is a small group, supporting everything large enterprise departments support with a fraction of the team. We can only function this way when team members document, build, share and understand when to push their ideas and when to build with ideas from other team members. Sixth Street is leveraging everything from traditional Windows workflows to modern containerized solutions. Building scalable, highly available, secure and fault tolerant architectures on AWS using CDK and deploying them via GitHub Actions will be a must but so is being able to debug traditional server-oriented software, networking, and access patterns on Windows Servers.
  • Questions, Learns and Educates. At Sixth Street we constantly ask "Why?" Some organizations claim to do this, but we live it every day. If we don't know "Why?" we find out Then, once we know, we document that new knowledge and share it. A successful candidate will work in Atlassian Jira, document their findings in Atlassian Confluence and use tools like GitHub, Zoom, Artifactory and other tools in our repertoire. Certifications and degrees are just as important as a bias for action coupled with experience and knowledge.
What We Value
  • Commitment to applying DevOps concepts in target environments: automation, everything as code, culture of collaboration across different domains, iterative development, strong observability
  • Result-oriented, commercial and focused on what matters
  • Team orientation and influencing skills
  • High Trust and Integrity
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset
  • Strong combination of organizational and interpersonal/communication skills
Preferred
  • Highly motivated, entrepreneurial, self-managed and team-oriented candidates with strong problem-solving skills
  • At least ten years of proven experience in Infrastructure Engineering. Relevant degree is preferred but not strictly required
  • Experienced at communicating tasks with individual contributors and sharing status with key stakeholders
  • Expert at leveraging public cloud concepts such as Infrastructure-as-Code, cost monitoring and control, IAM, CI/CD pipelines
  • Familiar with Open Source SDLC components commonly used to support Python-based software development: IDEs, debuggers, packaging tools, test automation, etc.
  • Excellent understanding of modern application architectures: Platform as a Service, SaaS, microservices as well as application architectures based on the REST API.
  • Familiarity with the Microsoft product ecosystem: .Net, Azure DevOps, Visual Studio, Active Directory, SQL Server, Power Tools (PowerBi, PowerAutomate).
  • Comfortable working in a high growth, iterative and collaborative environment with frequent interactions with software development and cybersecurity teams
  • Awareness of Workplace Technology functions such as desktops, central device management capabilities, user device monitoring and networking
  • Hands-on experience with common IT management and communication tools like Jira and Confluence
  • Comfortable with remote work using tools such as Zoom, Slack and Box
  • Experienced with Agile methodology and familiarity with DevOps principles
  • Possesses a strong sense of urgency and prioritization; ability to execute quickly and efficiently with strong attention to detail while keeping track of multiple parallel projects
  • Strong verbal and written communication abilities
