Full Description

We are building a modern internal technology platform that supports the development and operation of critical business systems across the organization. This platform provides the core infrastructure, application runtime environments, tooling, and monitoring capabilities needed to run reliable and scalable systems. These systems play a key role in supporting our operations, reliability, and service delivery. The platform spans multiple engineering domains including infrastructure, Kubernetes-based container platforms, developer tooling, messaging platforms, CI/CD systems, and observability platforms. These capabilities enable application teams to deploy and operate services through standardized, automated, and self-service workflows.  Our approach emphasizes software‑driven infrastructure, infrastructure as code, Git‑based workflows, and modern observability practices. Engineers on the platform team design and build production‑grade systems that improve reliability, reduce operational complexity, and accelerate software delivery across the organization. The platform is built on widely adopted technologies such as Kubernetes, Terraform, Git‑based workflows, Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry. Role Overview  The Platform engineer is responsible for designing, building, and operating the internal developer platform that enables teams to build, deploy, and operate software efficiently and reliably.  This role focuses on delivering self-service platform capabilities that standardize how applications are built, deployed, and operated across the organization. Platform Engineers work closely with infrastructure, cloud, and application teams to provide scalable platform services including container orchestration tooling, deployment pipelines, messaging systems, observability systems, and developer tooling.  MidAmerican Energy Company, a Midwest utility, provides regulated electric and natural gas service to more than 1.6 million customers in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota.
