About you
This is a rare opportunity to be a foundational member of the team building our AI future. As a Senior Platform Engineer focused on AI Infrastructure, you will be the critical link between our ambitious AI strategy and the robust, scalable platform required to make it a reality. You will work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, AI Operations (AIOps), and developer tooling, acting as a key systems integrator. You'll be researching, prototyping, and weaving together new technologies to build the engine that will power the next generation of our AI-enabled products. This is not a maintenance role; this is a greenfield opportunity to design, build, and integrate the mission-critical systems that will define our success for years to come.
What you'll do and how you'll have an impact
Lead the AI Tooling Platform Vision: Spearhead the design and implementation of the core infrastructure and integrations that enable the secure and scalable use of AI services like AWS Bedrock and developer tools like GitHub Copilot across the organization.
Architect for Scale and Reliability: Design and build resilient, scalable, and cost-effective infrastructure patterns, to support new generative AI and serverless workloads, while maintaining our existing legacy services on Kubernetes.
Drive Systems Integration & Prototyping: Act as the team's "polyglot" engineer, evaluating, prototyping, and integrating new and emerging technologies (e.g., new AI services, security tools, or developer platforms) to create a seamless, unified platform experience.
Enable AI Adoption: Partner closely with engineering teams to create the platforms and "golden paths" that allow them to securely and efficiently leverage generative AI services by integrating them directly into their products and workflows.
Elevate Developer Experience: Champion and enhance our Internal Developer Platform (IDP), creating self-service tools, "golden paths," and sophisticated automation in Go and TypeScript that connect our various systems to empower our engineering teams to ship features faster and more safely.
Drive Technical Excellence: Provide technical leadership and mentorship within a lean, high-performing platform team. Drive architectural decisions, lead complex technical discussions, and foster a culture of engineering excellence and continuous improvement.
Champion SRE and Security Best Practices: Proactively implement and manage security measures (including AI data governance and access controls) and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles across our cloud environment to improve system reliability, performance, and observability for our AI platform.
Own Critical Systems: Participate in an on-call rotation and lead incident response for our core platform, using each opportunity to learn and build more resilient systems.
What we're looking for
5+ years of experience in Platform Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or a similar role, with a proven track record of designing, building, and operating business-critical, distributed systems at scale.
Proficiency as a software engineer with strong experience in Go and/or TypeScript, with a belief in writing code to solve infrastructure and automation challenges.
Strong Integration & API Skills: Proven ability to architect and build connections between disparate systems, with strong knowledge of API design (REST, gRPC), webhooks, and event-driven architectures.
Demonstrated experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, with a strong preference for AWS CDK or Terraform.
A history of technical leadership, including mentoring other engineers, driving architectural decisions, and leading complex projects from inception to completion.
Deep expertise in AWS, including hands-on experience with multi-acco
