We’re a global close-knit community, united by the relentless pursuit to help keep people safer everywhere. We build and connect technologies to help protect people, property and places. Our solutions foster the collaboration that’s critical for safer communities, safer schools, safer hospitals, safer businesses, and ultimately, safer nations. Connect with a career that matters, and help us build a safer futureWhat Unified Communications Means at Motorola Solutions\nMotorola Solutions designs its UC ecosystem so that frontline workers, field technicians, office supervisors, and public safety personnel can collaborate seamlessly regardless of the device they carry or the network they connect to.\nKey principles include:\nAny Network, Any Device: Connecting traditional two-way radios (such as MOTOTRBO or APX P25) directly to smartphones, tablets, laptops, and dedicated broadband push-to-talk (PTT) handhelds.\nInstant Push-to-Talk (PTT): Expanding high-reliability, sub-second PTT audio from dedicated radio talkgroups to cellular and Wi-Fi networks.\nIntegration of Voice, Video, and Data: Unifying voice talkgroups with streaming video (body cameras, fixed surveillance), multimedia messaging, GPS location tracking, and telemetry.\nCore Products & Services in Motorola’s UC Portfolio\nWAVE PTX (Broadband Push-to-Talk)\nA subscription-based carrier-independent cloud service that turns smartphones, tablets, and PCs into push-to-talk communication devices.\nAllows office staff on smartphones or desktops to talk directly into frontline radio channels without needing a physical radio.\nBridges MOTOTRBO/TETRA/P25 radio systems with cellular networks.\nCritical Connect\nA cloud-based interoperability platform designed specifically for public safety and critical infrastructure.\nEnables mutual aid and cross-agency collaboration by federating disparate communication systems (e.g., allowing police, fire, emergency medical services, and utility teams across different jurisdictions and radio frequencies to join shared talkgroups seamlessly).\nHybrid Smart Devices (e.g., MOTOTRBO Ion)\nRuggedized devices that combine the mission-critical audio and durability of a two-way radio with the multimedia and touchscreen capabilities of an Android smartphone.\nConnects simultaneously to DMR radio frequencies, LTE, and Wi-Fi to keep workers connected both inside plants and out in the field.\nJob Description\nRole Summary\nWe are looking for a strong Senior Platform Engineer to design, build, and evolve the enterprise communication platform that serves as the foundation for engineering teams across the company.\nLeveraging GCP, Kubernetes/GKE, Terraform, GitOps, and automation, you will build scalable,

Responsibilities\nDesign, build, and operate scalable, secure, highly available, and reliable GCP platform capabilities.\nBuild and evolve production Kubernetes/GKE platforms supporting business-critical workloads.\nDevelop reusable platform capabilities, standards, and patterns that enable engineering teams to deploy and operate workloads consistently.\nBuild and manage infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code, with a focus on repeatability and maintainability.\nImplement and improve GitOps and CI/CD practices, using tools such as ArgoCD and other CI/CD platforms.\nDevelop automation using Python, Shell, or similar technologies to reduce manual operational work.\nDesign and implement GCP networking, IAM, compute, storage, load balancing, and security patterns that support application and platform workloads.\nTroubleshoot complex production issues across GCP, Kubernetes, networking, infrastructure, and platform services.\nImprove platform reliability, scalability, performance, security, and operational efficiency.\nBuild platform standards and self-service capabilities that improve the developer experience and reduce operational dependencies.\nParticipate in architecture and design reviews and provide technical guidance on platform engineering decisions.\nPartner closely with Application, SRE, DevOps, Security, and Architecture teams to understand requirements and deliver platform capabilities.\nLead or participate in major incident response, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives.\nMentor engineers and contribute to engineering standards, technical practices, and knowledge sharing.\nMust-Have Skills & Experience\n10+ years of experience in Platform Engineering, Cloud Engineering, DevOps, SRE, or a similar engineering role.\nStrong hands-on experience designing and operating GCP production environments.\nStrong production experience with Kubernetes/GKE.\nStrong experience with
