Staff Platform Engineer

This is a hands-on technical leadership role focused on raising the standard for how software is built, tested, delivered, and operated.
You will shape the platform foundations that product teams and AI coding agents rely on to move quickly and reliably.
The role spans developer experience, CI/CD, infrastructure, automated testing, observability, security, and secure software delivery.
You will establish engineering standards, build reusable tooling and golden paths, and help teams adopt workflows that create measurable leverage.
A key focus will be AI harness engineering: designing development environments and engineering systems where AI agents can work effectively and safely.
You will operate as a builder and technical leader, staying close to code, infrastructure, pipelines, and the evolving needs of engineering teams.
This is an opportunity to have organization-wide impact while helping define how modern software teams collaborate with increasingly capable AI agents.

• Strong software engineering background with significant experience building and operating production-grade systems.
• Demonstrated experience designing and developing internal platforms, with strong judgment around what should be abstracted, exposed, standardized, or left flexible.
• Deep expertise in CI/CD, automated testing, infrastructure as code, developer tooling, and modern software delivery practices.
• Strong understanding of software security and secure delivery approaches, including shift-left security and SecDevOps principles.
• Product-oriented mindset toward internal platforms, treating engineers and AI agents as users and measuring whether tooling genuinely improves their productivity.
• Practical fluency with AI coding agents, including an understanding of how they operate, where they encounter friction, and how engineering environments can be designed to make them more effective.
• Ability to operate as a hands-on technical leader who can define strategy while personally contributing to code, infrastructure, pipelines, and tooling.
• Strong systems thinking and the ability to identify organization-wide opportunities for standardization, automation, reliability, and developer productivity.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence product teams and drive adoption of shared engineering practices.
• Experience with end-to-end testing frameworks such as Playwright and knowledge of how to scale automated testing environments is a strong plus.
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment where established processes and playbooks may still be evolving.
