We’re seeking a high-impact, outcome-driven Infrastructure & Automation engineer to drive operational excellence across our EMEA IT estate. This is a strategic individual contributor role ideal for someone with deep technical capability, relentless curiosity, and the maturity to influence cross-regionally — even without direct line management. You’ll own the stability, scalability, and automation of our infrastructure and toolsets across 30+ offices and thousands of endpoints. This is an internal mobility opportunity to step into a more visible, EMEA-wide role with broad stakeholder exposure and tangible influence over the way ByeDance delivers enterprise IT.

Automation & AI Enablement - Build, deploy, and maintain automation frameworks and tooling to eliminate manual tasks, accelerate service delivery, and enhance regional operational performance. - Design and operationalise AI-driven initiatives — including agentic automation, copilot tools, and self-healing systems — to drive measurable improvements in end-user experience and support productivity. Governance & Service Delivery - Champion change governance by actively participating in CAB processes, ensuring all infrastructure activity complies with policy, meets regulatory requirements, and maintains audit-ready traceability. - Oversee the lifecycle of service tickets within the ITSM platform, ensuring high-quality logging, timely stakeholder updates, and full compliance with SLA targets and escalation processes. - Maintain and evolve a robust documentation library — including SOPs, configuration standards, and knowledge assets — to enable operational continuity, onboarding efficiency, and global consistency. Observability & Reporting - Own EMEA infrastructure observability — curating real-time dashboards, refining alerting mechanisms, and delivering actionable reports to support decision-making and service reliability. - Act as the senior technical representative for EMEA IT Services, fostering trusted relationships with regional teams and ensuring high standards of collaboration, communication, and brand representation.
