Auckland City, New Zealand Education Perfect Full time

Education Perfect is an EdTech platform designed to empower educators and amplify their impact in the classroom. We aim to enable teachers to personalise learning at scale with a range of powerful learning, assessment, and insights tools, helping them and their students reach their full potential.

As an EPeep, you’ll work on projects that have a real impact on students' lives and have the freedom, support and resources you need to develop your skills and grow your career.

We’re looking for a Platform Lead to head up our group of DevOps and Site Reliability Engineers, providing strong technical, people and process leadership for the team.

**What you will do**
- Lead, manage and support EP’s DevOps/SRE group and create a safe and inclusive environment for the team
- Collaborate across teams and functions to help define our architecture and our technical strategy and roadmap
- Own the end-to-end availability, reliability, security and performance of EPs platforms
- Develop automation, observability and processes to keep EP highly available, scalable and resilient
- Maintain and enhance EP's build and deployment processes to increase engineering productivity and product quality
- Ensure cost-effective use of third party providers, such as AWS
- Design and own security controls to ensure EP adheres to compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR
- Educate and empower software engineers to think operationally when designing services and to operate what they build

**About you**
- 8+ years of experience designing, developing and operating cloud software at scale
- 5+ years in a DevOps or SRE role, preferably on AWS
- Experience with technical leadership and people management, including the ability to mentor and support other engineers and align engineering work with high-level organisational goals
- Deep understanding of cloud design patterns, cloud operations, security and cost models - with hands-on ability to implement best practices and drive improvements
- Ability to manage risk, ambiguity, dependencies and cross-functional stakeholders
- Experience working with distributed teams in global engineering organisations
- Familiarity with our tech stack is an advantage, but not a requirement: C#, TypeScript, React, Kafka and Terraform on AWS. We also use Cloudflare, GitHub Actions, New Relic, Wiz and a variety of other tools.

Equitable opportunities, growth, and development lie at the heart of how we work at EP. We understand that not all applicants may possess all the following attributes so if you think you have what it takes, but are not sure you check every box, we would love to still hear from you

**What we offer**
- As our team is based globally, we offer both remote and flexible working arrangements
- For our remote workers, a communication allowance towards your monthly internet or phone charges and $1000 towards setting up your home office
- Three extra days of annual leave during our end of year shut down period, parental leave top ups and a community service day
- Wellness allowance to use on anything to support your mental and physical wellness
- EAP with unlimited sessions
- Employee Equity Bonus Plan
- Employee referral program - $2000 when you refer a new team member
- Ongoing professional development, including opportunities to develop your career into other areas of our business and access to EPs Learning Hub
- EP support groups - Mana Wahine, DEI, Environmental Impact and Wellness Committees
- The opportunity to work within a growing global business with Diversity Works accreditation, Carbon Net Zero BCorp status, Digital Promise certification, and an unwavering commitment to our mission, people, and community

We celebrate individuality, value diversity, and understand that flexible and remote work opportunities enable our team members to work in a way that fosters creativity and inspires individual brilliance. When you work with us, you're not just joining a company - you're joining a team united by the desire to make a difference.
