ChargePoint
About this role
ChargePoint, listed on the NYSE as CHPT, runs one of the world's largest EV charging networks along with the hardware, software and mobile apps around it. This is the platform engineering seat behind that: designing and owning the infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, observability stack and cloud platforms the products run on. The posting is one of the more complete infrastructure job descriptions on today's board, covering release management with versioning, rollback and progressive delivery through canary and blue green deployments, infrastructure as code with Terraform, Pulumi or CloudFormation across AWS, GCP or Azure, container orchestration on Kubernetes including service mesh and ingress, and a full observability stack with SLIs, SLOs and error budgets defined with engineering teams. You would also lead incident response, run blameless post mortems, and embed security practice including secrets management, least privilege IAM and network segmentation. It reports to the Director of IT and Information Security.
Who this is for
What the posting requires:
- 7 to 9 years of hands on experience in a DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering or Platform Engineering role.
What the work actually looks like, grouped as the posting groups it:
CI/CD and automation:
- Design, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines supporting rapid, high quality delivery across multiple teams and environments.
- Automate build, test, release and deployment workflows.
- Own release management including versioning, tagging, rollback strategies and progressive delivery through canary and blue green deployments.
- Integrate automated testing, code quality gates and security scanning into delivery pipelines.
Cloud infrastructure and architecture:
- Architect, provision and manage scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP or Azure using infrastructure as code tools such as Terraform, Pulumi or CloudFormation.
- Design for high availability, fault tolerance and cost efficiency, and review and optimise cloud spend.
- Manage multi environment setups across development, staging and production with environment parity.
Containers and microservices:
- Build and manage containerised workloads using Docker and Kubernetes on EKS, GKE, AKS or self managed clusters.
- Define standards for container image builds, registry management, security scanning and image lifecycle.
- Implement service mesh, ingress and networking within Kubernetes.
- Drive adoption of Helm or Kustomize for repeatable deployments.
Observability and reliability:
- Build and maintain an observability stack covering metrics, logs and distributed tracing, using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK or EFK, and Jaeger.
- Define SLIs, SLOs and error budgets with engineering teams and lead SRE practice across the organisation.
- Lead incident response including on call rotation and blameless post mortems.
Security and compliance:
- Embed security into infrastructure and pipelines: secrets management with Vault or AWS Secrets Manager, least privilege IAM, network segmentation and vulnerability scanning.
Who you report to: the Director of IT and Information Security.
Location and working pattern: Gurugram. Office days are not stated.
Honest fit guidance: the breadth here is wide and genuinely staff level. An on call rotation is stated. ChargePoint notes it provides reasonable accommodations throughout the hiring process and gives an email address for such requests.
