You create, own and are responsible for the application architecture that best serves the product in its functional and non-functional needs. You identify and drive architectural changes to accelerate feature development or improve the quality of service (or both). You have deep and broad engineering skills and are capable of standing up an architecture in its whole on your own, but you choose to influence a wider team by acting as a “force multiplier”. Target’s Cloud & Compute organization builds and operates the foundational platforms that power the experiences our guests, team members, partners, and engineers rely on every day. We are looking for engineers to help design, automate, scale, and evolve the cloud-native infrastructure, reliability practices, and developer-facing capabilities behind modern retail technology. Depending on the team, you may work across Kubernetes and container platforms, compute and storage, Kafka and data movement, observability, cloud management, site reliability engineering, or the cloud console experiences that make our platforms easier and safer to use. In this role, you will solve complex distributed systems and platform engineering challenges while creating secure, resilient, and self-service solutions that enable teams across Target to move faster with confidence. You will collaborate with product, engineering, and security to build reliable services, improve automation, define operational standards, strengthen observability, support production readiness, and continuously raise the bar for performance, availability, efficiency, and user experience. If you enjoy building platforms that serve many teams, operating systems at scale, learning across technical domains, and turning complex infrastructure into simple, dependable experiences, this is an opportunity to make a broad impact across Target Technology. Core responsibilities of this job are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs. About you: 4-year degree or equivalent experience 7+ years of software development experience with at least one full cycle implementation Experience leading at least one full-cycle implementation of a product, platform capability, infrastructure service, or major technical initiative from design through production operation. Deep expertise in designing, building, and operating highly scalable, reliable, secure, and performant distributed systems. Strong proficiency in multiple programming languages, frameworks, or technology stacks such as Java, Go, Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Kotlin, or similar. Broad technical experience across one or more cloud-native or platform engineering domains such as Kubernetes, containers, compute, storage, networking, Kafka or streaming platforms, observability, SRE, cloud management, platform AI, APIs, or cloud console development. Demonstrates ability to define technical strategy, influence architecture, and make sound engineering tradeoffs across performance, availability, scalability, security, maintainability, cost, and developer experience. Communicates and coordinates with project team, partners, and stakeholders Maintains deep technical knowledge within areas of expertise Stays current with new and evolving technologies via formal training and self-directed education This position will operate as a Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement based on Target’s needs. A Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement means the team member’s core role will need to be performed both onsite at the Target HQ MN location the role is assigned to and virtually, depending upon what your role, team and tasks require for that day.
