Middle/Senior Software Engineer – Platform

We are looking for a passionate Platform Engineer with a strong focus on building technical platforms and shared infrastructure used across multiple engineering teams.

You will join a high-performing platform engineering team responsible for foundational systems including internal libraries, shared backend services, CI/CD pipelines, developer tooling, and observability. This role involves significant ownership and collaboration, with a focus on improving engineering velocity, reliability, and scalability across the organization.

You will build scalable cloud-native platforms using technologies such as TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Actions, and AWS. You’ll collaborate with distributed cross-functional teams to deliver reliable and maintainable solutions.


Responsibilities:

• Scope and ownership increase with seniority.

• Build and maintain shared libraries and SDKs for areas such as authentication, logging, configuration, API clients, and error handling.

• Develop and support shared backend services and internal APIs.

• Improve developer experience through service templates, scaffolding, and local development tooling.

• Design and maintain CI/CD workflows with a focus on reliability, security, and speed.

• Build and maintain observability tooling including metrics, logging, tracing, dashboards, and alerting.

• Collaborate with product engineering teams to troubleshoot complex issues, support integrations, and review technical designs.

• Participate in on-call rotations and incident response.

Core Requirements:

• 3+ years of experience building backend services using TypeScript and Node.js, ideally with NestJS in production environments.

• Strong software engineering fundamentals including understanding of CPU, memory, I/O, concurrency, and performance bottlenecks.

• Experience using AI-assisted developer tools effectively while maintaining strong engineering judgment.

• Working knowledge of PostgreSQL including schema design, migrations, and query analysis.

• Familiarity with AWS services such as DynamoDB, SQS, Kinesis, and Lambda.

• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, including troubleshooting and release workflows.

• Experience with observability platforms such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, or similar.

• Ability to learn new tools, technologies, and domains quickly.

• Commitment to writing maintainable, reusable, and high-quality code.

Senior-Level Expectations:

• Additional backend/platform engineering experience with ownership of systems in production environments.

• Experience with PostgreSQL performance tuning including indexing strategies, query plans, and migration management.

• Experience designing and implementing CI/CD strategies including release flows, artifact promotion, and security considerations.

• Experience building observability practices including SLIs/SLOs, dashboards, and alerting systems.

• Ability to lead technical discussions, mentor engineers, and influence engineering standards across teams.

Soft Skills:

• Strong sense of ownership and accountability.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

• Ability to work effectively with globally distributed teams.

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.

• Strong problem-solving abilities and customer-focused thinking.

• Comfortable working in fast-paced environments with multiple stakeholders and time zones.
