Platform Automation Engineer (ID#5265) Richmond, BC • il y

The company, a national IT consulting company, is seeking a Platform Automation Engineer to lead the automation strategy for our client's developer platform and enablement services. You will design and deliver a self-service kiosk that integrates seamlessly with Azure DevOps, ServiceNow, Ansible, and Terraform to provision secure, standardized, and cost-effective environments and paved roads for the engineering community. Your work will elevate stakeholder experience, reduce delivery risk, and avoid cost by removing effort and accelerating high-confidence, compliant delivery paths. Responsibilities :

• Lead the automation strategy for the common engineering ecosystem, defining the north star for self-service and “paved road” experiences across repository, pipeline, and infrastructure provisioning.
• Design and build a self-service kiosk that integrates ServiceNow request flows with orchestration powered by Ansible and Terraform to enable one-click provisioning of application and platform blueprints.
• Engineer Azure-native solutions that are secure-by-design, observable, and scalable, using services such as Azure App Service, Azure Functions, Azure Storage, Azure Key Vault, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Azure Monitor.
• Develop in .NET and automate with PowerShell, building reusable libraries, modules, and pipeline templates that can be adopted widely.
• Extend and automate Azure DevOps with the Azure DevOps REST API, implementing repository-as-code and pipeline-as-code patterns, quality gates, compliance checks, and governance reporting.
• Champion quality engineering, embedding automated testing (unit, component, contract, and security scans) throughout continuous integration and continuous delivery.
• Experience and passion for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and for integrating people, process, products, and AI Agents to enhance developer experience and delivery outcomes. Design responsible, human-in-the-loop automation that uses AI to remove toil, improve signal-to-noise, and accelerate safe decision-making.
• Partner across the organization (platform, security, architecture, operations, and product teams) to co-design guardrails, align on “paved roads” versus “un-paved roads,” and land changes with empathy and accountability.
• Measure what matters, establishing clear telemetry, service-level indicators, and adoption metrics to drive continuous improvement, risk reduction, and cost avoidance.
