Senior Platform Engineer

About the Role

Join the platform engineering team at a B2B AI software company and build the foundations that help AI products perform reliably in production. Your work will support real-time data flows, streaming responses, and LLM requests while balancing reliability, performance, and cost.

What You'll Do

• Integrate AI products that process data from external sources and multiple systems in real time.

• Route streaming responses and LLM requests across providers, with fallback and cost logic.

• Monitor latency, costs, and error rates, then act proactively to prevent system degradation.

• Use sound architectural judgment to improve system quality while keeping designs simple and maintainable.

• Build instrumentation and observability that surface missing signals and help diagnose complex production issues.

What We're Looking For

• At least 3 years of backend engineering experience, including ownership of production platform foundations.

• Strong TypeScript skills and practical knowledge of PostgreSQL, APIs, queues, and caching.

• Production experience with Docker and Kubernetes.

• System design skills and the ability to reason about performance, latency, and cost trade-offs.

• Experience with multi-system real-time context, streaming responses, and LLM routing across providers.

• A track record of improving reliability and performance under production load.
