  • Team Overview:
    In a nutshell, a platform team is a team that creates the foundational layers and core building blocks of a company’s products.

    • IaC, tooling to deploy and monitor resources in the Cloud
    • Development environment, tools and shared libraries
    • Help and can define global system architecture / security
    • Core abstractions (data model, business modeling) API/SDKs

Responsibilities

  • Improve the Developer eXperience
  • Lower the technical overhead for squads / pods
  • PoC all things that could bring better standards – then deploy it!
  • Support and help all teams when necessary
  • Build various tools in a large pool of environment (cli, libraries, IaC, workflow)
  • Work on everything you think can make the difference!
  • Create documentation / recommendation on how to build Cloud Native solution
  • Advocate on the solutions built
