Job Specifications

Role: Platform Operator (IT Operations) / AMS (Application Managed Services)

Location: San Jose, CA (Onsite)

Job Type: Contract

Overview

Client is seeking a Platform Operator / AMS resource with strong IT operations, platform reliability, and DevOps exposure to support and operate an existing cloud-based platform.
Development work is minimal and secondary to operations.
The primary requirement is platform ownership and operational reliability, not new feature development.

Operations vs. Development Split

Operations: ~95%

Development: ~5%

Note: This is not a

Not a full-stack developer role
Not a build-from-scratch role
Profiles that are heavily development- or coding-focused are likely to be a mismatch.

Ideal Profile

The right fit will demonstrate a “run-the-platform” mindset, with hands-on experience in operating and supporting production platforms.
Strong alignment will be seen in candidates who have:
Operated a similar platform in a production environment
Experience in AMS / platform operations
Comfort owning platform stability, reliability, and availability end-to-end
Pure developers or build-heavy profiles are not aligned to the current need.

Core Responsibilities

Operate and support the existing platform

Ensure

~Platform stability and reliability

~Day-to-day operational health

~Handle incidents, monitoring, and operational tasks

~Work closely with IT, platform, and business stakeholders

Skills & Experience Required

Strong IT operations background
Hands-on platform operations / reliability experience
Exposure to DevOps practices
Experience supporting cloud-based platforms
Prior experience operating a platform (not just building one)

Even As The Role Evolves

Operations will always outweigh development
This role will not become a 50/50 Dev/Ops position

Reporting Expectations

Reporting is not limited to infrastructure or platform health
Focus is on business or platform-related reporting, tied to Jet Studio
