Within ASE, the Apple Data Platform SRE team keeps a massive, multi-cloud platform running for thousands of internal engineers building the next generation of data and AI products at Apple. We sit at the intersection of infrastructure, automation, and customer success - running incident response, providing hands-on support to internal teams, and partnering with developers to make cutting-edge services like Spark, Flink, Airflow, Ray, Notebooks, and LLM-based agent platforms reliable at scale across AWS, GCP, and on-premise Kubernetes.
Description
This is a rare opportunity to build deep expertise across one of the most technically diverse platforms at Apple - while specialising in the cloud infrastructure that underpins all of it. As an SRE on Apple Data Platform, you'll operate and support the team's full portfolio, from big data pipelines to ML/AI platform services, and grow into the team's go-to expert for multi-cloud infrastructure - including AWS core services (IAM, EKS, RDS, S3, VPC networking, autoscaling, EBS), Kubernetes administration at scale, and the Infrastructure-as-Code and GitOps tooling that keeps it all reconciled and reliable. You'll be the person other engineers turn to when an IAM policy misfires, a cluster hits a scheduling wall, or a GitOps reconciliation drifts out of sync - and the driving force behind making those failure modes rarer over time.
We're looking for a self-motivated engineer who thrives on ownership - someone who wants a set of services to call their own, the autonomy to drive their reliability roadmap, and the collaborative instinct to keep that work aligned with the team's broader direction. If you love going deep on cloud and Kubernetes internals, enjoy being the trusted expert customers turn to, and want a front-row seat to Apple Data Platform's multi-cloud evolution, this role offers real room to grow your scope and impact over time.
","responsibilities":"Operate, monitor, and triage production and non-production environments across the ADP portfolio - data processing, ML/AI, and multi-cloud infrastructure.
Participate in a rotating on-call schedule across supported services, including occasional weekday and weekend coverage.
Own the operational health of multi-cloud infrastructure as SME - driving reliability, support, and customer guidance for AWS services, EKS clusters, and cross-cloud networking.
Provide Slack-based support to internal customers; screen, triage, and resolve service related issues.
Debug production incidents involving IAM permission errors, storage quota limits, control-plane/data-plane namespace separation, and cluster-wide disruptions.
Partner with dev teams across time zones to onboard new services - understanding architecture, then designing monitoring, alerting, and dashboards (Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk).
Maintain and evolve Infrastructure-as-Code (Crossplane, Terraform) and GitOps (Flux) workflows, troubleshooting state drift and reconciliation issues.
Build automation and self-healing tooling that reduces manual toil and scales the team's operational capacity.
Identify, escalate, and resolve production issues to protect platform reliability and customer experience.
Collaborate with SRE and dev partner teams, engineering, and program management to align execution with team and org goals.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (Crossplane and/or Terraform), including debugging state drift and composition/controller issues.
Experience with GitOps workflows (Flux or similar) - HelmRepository/reconciliation troubleshooting and Helm chart deployment.
Multi-cloud exposure (GCP) - parity and migration scenarios are emerging areas of focus.
Experience with Splunk for log pipeline debugging (e.g., fluent-bit).
Familiarity with Spark/Flink running on Kubernetes (executor scheduling, node affinity).
Comfort with GitHub PR review workflows in an infrastructure-as-code / GitOps context.
A track record of automating manual operations through scripting or tooling.
Intellectual curiosity and a drive to keep learning - for yourself, your team, and the org.
Minimum Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, an engineering-related field, or equivalent related experience.
1-4 years in a Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Infrastructure-focused role.

Tips for Your Infrastructure Platform Engineer Job Search
Tailor your resume to platform maturity
Hiring teams distinguish between engineers who built platforms from scratch and those who scaled existing ones. Specify where you inherited infrastructure versus greenfielded it, and what scale you reached in terms of clusters, services, or developer adoption.
Highlight IDP metrics recruiters recognize
Internal developer platform work is hard to quantify on a resume. Frame your contributions around developer experience outcomes: deployment frequency improvements, onboarding time reduction, or self-service adoption rates across engineering teams you supported.
Filter openings by cloud provider depth
Job listings vary widely between roles that want multi-cloud architects and those deeply tied to a single provider. Match your strongest certifications, whether AWS, GCP, or Azure, to listings that weight that provider to avoid wasted applications.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists infrastructure platform engineer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a live infrastructure demo for interviews
Technical screens for this role often include a whiteboard or live Terraform and Kubernetes exercise. Have a public repository showing a working platform prototype, not just configuration snippets, so you can walk interviewers through real decisions.
Negotiate scope before accepting compensation
Platform engineering offers vary significantly in autonomy. Before finalizing any offer, confirm whether you own toolchain decisions or implement a predetermined stack, and whether the role has a seat in architecture reviews. Scope directly affects your career trajectory.
Infrastructure Platform Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most infrastructure platform engineers?
The companies hiring the most infrastructure platform engineers right now include CVS Health, JPMorganChase, and Oracle, with the largest share of openings in California, Texas, and New York, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Demand is concentrated at companies scaling their internal developer platforms or migrating large workloads to cloud-native architectures.
How many infrastructure platform engineer jobs are remote?
About 82% of infrastructure platform engineer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the distributed nature of most platform teams. Roles focused on internal developer tooling, infrastructure-as-code, and Kubernetes platform development tend to offer the most remote flexibility, while on-site requirements appear more often in regulated industries like finance and healthcare.
How do you become an infrastructure platform engineer?
Start by building strong fundamentals in Linux systems administration and networking, then move into cloud infrastructure using a major provider. Learn Terraform for provisioning and Kubernetes for container orchestration through hands-on projects. Contribute to open-source platform tooling or build a personal homelab to demonstrate end-to-end platform design.
