DevOps Platform Engineer(Hybrid – Cebu)


Ready to level up your career?

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Software Engineer to join our Platform Engineering group. In this role, you will play a key part in designing, building, and continuously improving the foundational platforms, tooling, and automation that enable our product engineering teams to deliver software efficiently, securely, and at scale. This is a hands-on engineering position where you will contribute directly to the systems and frameworks that underpin the entire organisation’s delivery lifecycle.

You will work across multiple domains, including cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, developer experience, automation, container orchestration, event streaming and observability. Your focus will be on creating robust, reusable, and scalable platform capabilities that remove friction, standardise best practices, and support a modern engineering ecosystem. By enabling teams with well‑designed tooling and infrastructure, you will help accelerate delivery, reduce operational overhead, and increase reliability across the organisation.

In addition to delivering high‑quality platform solutions, you will collaborate closely with engineering teams to understand their needs, identify common patterns, and develop platform-as-a-product offerings that enhance productivity and improve engineering workflows. You will be expected to think strategically about platform evolution, contribute to architectural decisions, and help shape our future direction in areas such as cloud-native design, security-by-default, automation-first delivery, and scalable operational practices.

This role also provides the opportunity to influence and uplift engineering excellence across the organisation. You will contribute to establishing standards for cloud usage, deployment practices, infrastructure automation, and operational maturity. Through collaboration, advocacy, and mentorship, you will help foster a culture of continuous improvement, knowledge sharing, and technical leadership.
