The Role & Why It Exists

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will be part of a Platform Team dedicated to making Gravitee's products best in class in terms of both product and infrastructure. You will be responsible for building and maintaining the cloud infrastructure that powers Gravitee's platform, while also supporting our customers with exceptional technical expertise.

This is a hands-on, critical role in our organization. The right candidate will enjoy problem solving in a highly specialized and technical way - from delivering production-ready Kubernetes-based environments to investigating complex customer issues.

As Gravitee expands into AI Agent Management, the Platform team plays a critical role in ensuring our infrastructure can support AI workloads, agent orchestration, and the demanding performance requirements of real-time AI gateway operations.

What You Will Be Doing

Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Participate in delivering Gravitee NextGen Cloud infrastructure, including environments that support AI Gateway and Agent Management workloads

• Work with other team members to develop and maintain new infrastructure features

• Share your knowledge (tech and non-tech) during internal Gravitee TechTalks

• Lead investigation of support tickets and work collaboratively to resolve customer issues

• Create knowledge articles to complete documentation and enable customers to better understand product use cases

• Be innovative within the team to help improve processes and tools, including exploring AI-driven automation for operations

AI & Automation Mindset

At Gravitee, we see AI as a force multiplier for engineers, not a replacement for solid engineering fundamentals. We expect you to:

• Be open and proactive in using AI-assisted tools (e.g., AI coding assistants, troubleshooting aids, automation helpers) to accelerate day-to-day work

• Use AI thoughtfully to improve existing processes, reduce manual toil, and increase reliability in operations and support workflows

• Experiment with AI-driven approaches to problem solving, documentation, and incident analysis, while maintaining a strong critical mindset

• Understand the limits of AI tools and apply engineering judgment to validate, refine, and productionize outcomes

• Contribute ideas on how AI can be safely and effectively integrated into our platform, infrastructure, and internal tooling

AI at Gravitee is not about shortcuts - it is about working smarter, faster, and more sustainably at scale.
