Senior Engineer, Global Technology - Enterprise Core Platform

Company Description “We’re not in the shipping business; we’re in the information business” -Peter Rose, Expeditors Founder Global supply chain management is what we do, but at the heart of Expeditors you will find professionalism, leadership, and a friendly environment, all of which foster an innovative, customer service-based approach to logistics. 18,000 trained professionals 350+ locations worldwide across 60+ countries Fortune 500 Globally unified systems Job Description Why This Role Matters As a Senior Engineer, you will help shape the future of the Enterprise Core Platform (ECP), the internal developer platform on Azure that every engineering team at Expeditors builds on. We are turning ECP from shared infrastructure into a platform engineering organization that runs like a product: self-service, declarative, and built for both engineers and the AI agents they work with. This role will help build where the platform is going next. Team and Technology You will join the Enterprise Core Platform engineering team, working in a small team using Kanban and monthly backlog planning. Each domain is led by a TPM and an engineering lead who act as cofounders, with autonomy to build and decide in their area and accountability for the result. The platform spans Azure Kubernetes Service, GitOps, infrastructure as code, identity, secrets, policy as code, and a new control plane written in Go. The team also builds AI-native capabilities including MCP servers, agent skills, spec-driven workflows, and the guardrails around them. What Success Looks Like First 30 days: run the control plane locally, ship a reviewed change within the first two weeks, and shadow the on-call rotation. First 90 days: own one capability end to end (design note, implementation, tests, rollout to a dev environment), and ship one agent-facing capability, such as an MCP tool, skill, or golden path, that another team uses. First year: lead a stage of the control plane roadmap, carry a platform domain through a migration, and raise how the rest of the team builds with agents. Key Areas of Impact Technical Depth and Delivery Build and operate the Go control plane and its providers across identity, source control, GitOps, secrets management, templates, and the path to production. Own capabilities end to end through design, implementation, testing, reviewed pull requests, rollout, and operational support. Architectural Scale Modernize Azure Kubernetes Service, GitOps, infrastructure as code, identity, secrets, and policy as code, leading migrations and helping define platform ownership. Help evolve ECP from pipeline-based provisioning to a declarative control plane that reconciles state, corrects drift, and enables safe AI-native workflows. Team Collaboration Scale Partner within a small team where TPM and engineering leads share ownership, autonomy, technical decisions, and accountability for results. Build with coordinated agents using implementation, adversarial review, and independent verification while remaining accountable for every line you merge. Influence and Advocacy Use reviewed pull requests, design notes, and architecture decision records (ADRs) to communicate technical decisions and help raise engineering practices across the team. Help shape what the platform owns, how teams use agent-facing capabilities, and how engineers build safely and effectively with AI agents. Scope of Vision Lead a stage of the control plane roadmap and carry a platform domain through migration as ECP evolves into a self-service, declarative platform. Help define the future of ECP across the control plane, AI-native developer experience, and core platform domains. Scale of Business Understanding and Impact Connect ECP’s technical priorities and decisions to Expeditors’ broader business and technology strategy, improving the platform experience for engineering teams through reliable, scalable, self-service capabilities.
