About Cambio

Cambio is a software platform for world-class real estate decarbonization. We help commercial real estate owners and tenants bring their real estate portfolios to net-zero using a machine learning-driven, end-to-end real estate sustainability platform. Our mission is to take the real estate industry into the climate action era.

We are proud to be the fastest growing startup in our category, with world-class partners and investors including Y Combinator, Google, the U.S. Department of Energy, Stanford University and Fifth Wall. We are seeking team members who are passionate about building transformative products, enthusiastic about problem-solving, and excited to work at the forefront of climate and real estate technology. Join us on our mission to achieve net zero by 2050.

The Role

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will play a key role in establishing and enhancing our engineering platform. You will help ensure the reliability, scalability, and efficiency of our systems while developing tools that improve engineering productivity. The best candidate has experience as a software developer and a passion for scaling dev environments and infrastructure.

You will play a key role in defining and shaping our platform strategy, setting best practices, and driving initiatives that enhance developer experience, system performance, and operational efficiency.

Things Our Engineers Love:

Mission-driven: Climate can’t wait. We’re building real solutions for one of the most carbon-intensive industries — real estate.
Hypergrowth: We've tripled our ARR last year and we’re on track to do it again.
AI-forward: We're tripling our investment in AI to supercharge our platform and help customers decarbonize faster.
World-class team: Ex-Google, Bain, Faire, One Medical, OMERS, Goldman Sachs, and more.
High ownership: Join early, ship fast, and help shape the product, team, and culture from the ground up.
Competitive compensation + meaningful early-stage equity

What You Will Be Doing:

DevOps & Infrastructure: Design, implement, and maintain scalable infrastructure to support engineering needs.
CI/CD Optimization: Improve our continuous integration and continuous deployment pipelines using AWS CDK, including requirements for a deployment tool and database migration tool to enable fast and reliable releases.
Release Tracking & Deployment: Establish visibility into release cycles, implement automation to streamline deployments, and ensure smooth rollouts.
Site Reliability & Observability: Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting systems to ensure high availability and performance of services.
Internal Tooling: Build and maintain tools that improve developer efficiency, automate repetitive tasks, and enhance productivity.
Security & Compliance: Ensure security best practices are followed in infrastructure, deployments, and internal systems, with a focus on SoC, ISO, and GDPR compliance.

What We’re Looking For:

7+ years of technical experience: 5+ years of experience as an Senior Platform Engineer or similar. Prior startup experience is preferred but not required.
Deep expertise in AWS, including Fargate and Kubernetes for container orchestration.
Strong experience with CI/CD pipelines, specifically leveraging AWS CDK, including deployment and database migration tools.
Proficiency in observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana) and performance monitoring.
Deep understanding of scaling strategies and highly available architectures.
Experience with scripting and automation using Python, Bash, or TypeScript required.
Knowledge of security best practices, including compliance with SoC, ISO, and GDPR as a bonus.
Ability to collaborate cross-functionally with engineering teams to drive platform improvements.

Our Tech Stack:

Infrastructure: AWS, Fargate, Redis, PostgreSQL, SQS, CDK, GitHub, Retool
Backend: Django REST framework, Celery
Frontend: Next.js, Tailwind css
LLM: OpenAI, Claude, AWS Bedrock

Logistics:

Work Authorization: Authorization to work in the United States or Canada is required.
Location: This is a hybrid role requiring 2–3 days of in-person collaboration per week.

If you thrive on creating well-crafted products and systems that have a disproportionate impact on the real estate industry’s path to net zero, we invite you to join our team as a Senior Platform Engineer at Cambio. Apply now to embark on this journey with us.

Compensation Range: $175K - $215K
