leading a new era of audio entertainment and services by delivering the most compelling subscription and ad-supported audio entertainment experience for listeners in the car, at home, and anywhere on the go with connected devices. Our vision is to shape the future of audio, where everyone can be effortlessly connected to the voices, stories and music they love wherever they are.

Our critically-acclaimed, industry-leading audio entertainment encompasses music, sports, comedy, news, talk, live events, and podcasting. No matter their individual role, each of our employees plays a vital role in bringing SiriusXM’s vision to life everyday.

SiriusXM

SiriusXM is the leading audio entertainment company in North America, and the premier programmer and platform for subscription and digital advertising-supported audio products. SiriusXM’s platforms collectively reach approximately 150 million listeners, the largest digital audio audience across paid and free tiers in North America, and deliver music, sports, talk, news, comedy, entertainment and podcasts. Pandora, a subsidiary of SiriusXM, is the largest ad-supported audio entertainment streaming service in the U.S. SiriusXM's subsidiaries Simplecast and AdsWizz make it a leader in podcast hosting, production, distribution, analytics and monetization. The Company’s advertising sales organization, which operates as SXM Media, leverages its scale, cross-platform sales organization and ad tech capabilities to deliver results for audio creators and advertisers. SiriusXM, through Sirius XM Canada Holdings, Inc., also offers satellite radio and audio entertainment in Canada. In addition to its audio entertainment businesses, SiriusXM offers connected vehicle services to automakers.

How You’ll Make An Impact

The Platform Engineering organization is seeking an experienced engineering Director to lead Cloud Engineering and further its mission to enable effortless innovation of the software that drives SiriusXM. Platform Engineering owns the AWS environment and the internal development platform upon which SiriusXM technologists build, deploy, and operate software. We provide the foundational infrastructure, tooling, libraries, guiding patterns, and support that allows our technologists to focus more on delivering value to our listeners and less on infrastructure and other software development complexities. The Director of Cloud Engineering will be responsible for the overall company-wide cloud strategy and account footprint, infrastructure as code libraries and reference implementations, cloud spend tooling, and cloud architecture advice and support. This role will drive execution of their teams’ priorities, identify future projects and opportunities, and help coach and develop the managers and individual contributors reporting to them. This is an excellent opportunity to lead a group that is foundational to the success of SiriusXM’s technology strategy as we aim to continue to be the leading audio entertainment company in North America.

  • Inspire and empower your teams in executing against an ambitious product and technical roadmap.
  • Provide detailed, constructive feedback to peers and direct reports through reviews of product development artifacts such as product briefs, technical designs, and ADRs
  • Stay on the cutting edge of industry trends to identify new technologies and practices that could contribute to more effective cloud usage at SiriusXM.
  • Balance the priorities of a diverse set of stakeholders including developers, Security, Operations, Data Scientists, and Finance.

What You’ll Need

  • 10+ years of experience as a Software Engineer or similar role, including at least 5 years in a management role
  • 7+ years of hands on experience architecting and deploying cloud-native applications on a public cloud provider (AWS strongly preferred)
  • Strong understanding of cloud computing and execution of cloud initiatives in a large distributed organization
  • Extensive experience with infrastructure as code (IaC)
  • Knowledge of foundational infrastructure concepts (e.g. IP networking, identity and access management, VPNs, DNS, firewalling, and load balancing)
  • Experience supporting development, operations, and security teams, including the ability to provide ongoing architecture and implementation support
  • Ability to work through ambiguity and deliver clarity
  • Passion for working with internal customers
  • Fluency in at least two programming language
  • Extra credit :
  • ○ Experience building an internal developer platform

    ○ Experience with AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK)

    ○ AWS Solution Architect Professional Certification

    ○ Fluency in TypeScript / Node.js

We expect the base salary for this position to be in the range of $153,500 to $280,000 and will depend on your skills, qualifications, and experience.
