Staff Platform Engineer, Infrastructure

What You'll Do

• Build the seam between product and ML: credentials, proxy, routing, experimentation.
• See the next scaling bottleneck two quarters early and fix it before anyone notices it existed.
• Architect and own whole parts of the platform end to end.
• Make every product engineer faster — dev experience, deploy speed, abstractions.
• Help set technical direction as the team goes from three to eight.

Requirements

• You've rewritten an entire service because you realized the bugs were all coming from bad architecture.
• You've seen systems break, understood why, and now think twelve months ahead.
• You build the foundation patiently so that everything after it ships faster.
• You get excited about complex problems with lots of constraints and edge cases.
• You care as much about the user journey as the technical requirements.
