Overview

We’re looking for an Experienced Engineer to join our team at Garmin’s U.S. headquarters in the Greater Kansas City area. This is a brand-new group driving application architecture standards, reliability, and cloud enablement across Garmin.

Our mission: partner with software engineering teams across the company to guide their technology transformations, accelerate cloud adoption, and define standards and best practices that raise the bar for how Garmin builds software. We influence all types of development teams — from customer-facing applications and internal tools to manufacturing engineering systems — all sharing a common goal: delivering reliability and scalability for their business domain.

As part of this team, you’ll collaborate globally with developers on both consulting and hands-on engagements, offering the right balance of technical depth and practical guidance. You’ll also work closely with the Cloud Platform Engineering team to shape the evolution of our internal cloud services, ensuring they meet the needs of our diverse engineering community.

You’ll be a great fit if you:

• Are a seasoned software engineer or architect with strong cloud and platform engineering experience.

• Have developed and operated cloud-native distributed services that require high reliability such as safety critical systems.

• Communicate clearly — both in writing and in conversation — and know how to adapt your message to your audience’s technical level.

• Have excellent customer service and bring empathy and patience when helping less experienced teams navigate complex challenges.

• Stay pragmatic: you know the ideal solution isn’t always the right one for now.

• Have strong opinions, yet remain humble, flexible, and collaborative.

• Are energized by the challenge of building something new in a fast-moving, startup-like environment.

If you’re passionate about enabling teams, shaping standards, and helping developers succeed in the cloud, we’d love to have you on the journey.
