About this role

Accountabilities

You will define, build, and evolve the core platform and engineering foundations that support all product teams and AI-driven workflows, ensuring scalability, security, and developer efficiency. You will act as both architect and hands-on engineer, shaping how software is built and delivered across the organization.

• Shape and improve the end-to-end engineering lifecycle, including local development, CI/CD, deployment pipelines, and production feedback loops

• Define and enforce standards for testing, infrastructure-as-code, observability, and secure software delivery practices

• Build shared platforms, tooling, templates, and “golden paths” that improve developer velocity and consistency

• Own secure delivery practices by embedding security scanning, secrets management, dependency controls, and supply-chain protection into core pipelines

• Design infrastructure and tooling that enable AI coding agents to operate effectively within engineering systems

• Improve system feedback loops and measure platform effectiveness using DORA metrics and engineering productivity signals

• Partner with product teams to ensure adoption of platform standards and continuously raise engineering maturity across the organization

Requirements

You bring a strong software engineering foundation combined with deep platform engineering experience and a pragmatic mindset toward building scalable internal systems. You understand both developer needs and system-level constraints, and you are comfortable working in AI-augmented environments.

• Strong background in software engineering with significant experience in platform or infrastructure engineering roles

• Proven ability to design and build internal developer platforms and engineering tooling at scale

• Deep expertise in CI/CD systems, automated testing frameworks, and infrastructure-as-code practices

• Strong understanding of modern software security practices, including SecDevOps and shift-left security approaches

• Experience building developer-centric platforms with a product mindset and measurable impact on engineering velocity

• Familiarity with AI coding agents and an understanding of their strengths, limitations, and integration patterns

• Experience with observability, production systems, and distributed architectures in cloud-native environments

• Strong communication skills and ability to influence engineering teams through technical leadership rather than hierarchy

• Bonus: experience with end-to-end testing frameworks (e.g., Playwright) and scaling testing infrastructure

Benefits

• Fully remote and flexible working model

• High-impact role with significant ownership over core engineering infrastructure

• Equity participation aligned with company success

• Opportunity to shape next-generation AI-native software development workflows

• Work in a high-caliber, engineering-driven environment focused on excellence and innovation

• Strong emphasis on individual ownership and technical leadership recognition

• Direct visibility into product impact and fast feedback loops from engineering users

• Inclusive, global team culture with a focus on autonomy and performance
