Developer Workplace Engineer III

Developer Workplace Engineer

About the Role :

As a Developer Workplace Engineer within the Developer Workplace squad, you will be a key enabler in our vision to empower every developer at Swiss Re with a seamless, secure, and high-performance workplace. Your role is central to creating a frictionless environment that fosters innovation, accelerates software delivery, and ensures compliance without sacrificing speed. By integrating automation, self-service solutions, and secure-by-design practices, you will help transform Swiss Re into a leading technology-driven reinsurer.

Further you will partner with endpoint engineers, developer advocates, and IT Security to standardize developer workstations, automate onboarding and environment setup, and deliver self-service tools that allow engineers to provision their own dev / test environments and access the right packages and privileges from day one.

Key Responsibilities

Platform Engineering

Utilize containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) to design and manage standardized, self-service developer environments. Integrate and configure essential developer tools (such as Git, Azure DevOps, and JIRA) into cohesive, automated workflows that empower on-demand provisioning and streamline deployment processes.

Security Integration & DevSecOps

Implement secure-by-design configurations across all developer workstations and established processes. Collaborate with IT Security to define and enforce guardrails, manage access and privileges, and continuously monitor compliance to ensure a secure yet agile development ecosystem.

Developer Enablement & Support

Drive the standardization of developer endpoints by automating technical onboarding and environment setup, and by building self-service solutions that grant developers immediate access to the right tools and packages. Provide advanced technical support through effective troubleshooting and clear, comprehensive documentation to enhance the overall developer experience.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

Engage closely with cross-functional teams - spanning endpoint engineering, developer advocacy, and IT Security - to integrate platforms and optimize workflows. Serve as a content leader who champions best practices, coordinates complex initiatives, and aligns teams on strategic objectives. Leverage developer feedback and performance metrics to drive iterative enhancements, ensuring that automation, self-service, and security measures evolve in line with industry best practices.
