Medior/Senior IOH Platform Team Engineer at Cigna

About the Role

Cigna is undergoing a major global Agile transformation with SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) as a core delivery model. This role is part of the IOH Platform Team, responsible for building and evolving internal platforms, shared services, and tooling that enable product teams to deliver reliably, efficiently, and at scale.

You will work within a self‑organized, cross‑functional platform team embedded in the IOH Agile Release Train (ART), supporting a predominantly on‑premises Windows Server environment while contributing to a pragmatic evolution toward hybrid and cloud‑based solutions.
