The J.M. Smucker Company • Orrville, OH • 4h ago

Your Opportunity as the Lead Developer, IS Platform Services

The Smucker Information Services (IS) department enables technology solutions and capabilities that help our business perform, transform and grow. The Lead Developer on the IS Platform Services Team realizes this purpose by building, automating, and supporting the internal platforms and tools that empower the business and development teams across the organization. This role operates across a diverse technology landscape - from GitHub, and Databricks to serverless architectures, containers, and Linux platform work - driving internal process automation, platform governance, and the modernization of legacy systems. This is not a single-stack role; it requires a high-aptitude tinkerer with a passion for learning new technologies and applying broad development skills to solve real problems across multiple platforms, helping to both build and manage the platform. This technical hands-on position requires proven development skills, excellent communication, curiosity to solve problems, and the ability to champion developer experience while balancing it with sound governance and supportability. Our ideal candidate is someone who is interested in internal development across multiple platforms and languages, demonstrates strong selfmotivation and efficiency, works effectively both independently and collaboratively, and contributes to operating the development platform that enables developers across the company.

Build and automate across platforms:

Write clean, well-documented code in Python, Bash, and other languages to support internal process automation and platform operations.

Build and manage containerized workloads using Kubernetes, Docker, and serverless technologies (Lambda, Azure Functions).

Modernize and refactor:

Refactor legacy repositories, scripts, and automation to improve maintainability, security, and performance.

Identify opportunities to consolidate, standardize, and modernize tooling and codebases across the organization.

Apply modern IT concepts (Infrastructure as Code, DevOps, Cloud Computing) to evolve the platform services environment.

Steward development platforms:

Serve as a steward of internal development platforms, such as GitHub - including org structure, repo access, change control, and governance.

Implement tools and practices that make the lives of developers easier while maintaining appropriate guardrails and compliance.

Champion standards for source control, branching strategies, and code promotion processes.

Support and maintain existing solutions:

Participate in a rotating on-call schedule to support platform services and respond to incidents.

Facilitate troubleshooting and resolution of complex issues across supported platforms and automations.

Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and thorough documentation for all work products.
