## Description

## About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to join our team at EarnIn. As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will design, build, and operate the agentic systems and core infrastructure that power our platform.

## Position Summary

You will work across Kubernetes (AWS EKS), GitOps (Argo CD), CI/CD (GitHub Actions), and our developer portal (Cortex), building AI agents and automation that reduce operational toil and increase platform leverage for engineering teams across EarnIn.

## Responsibilities

- Design, build, and operate AI agents in production, following established governance patterns for model selection, evaluation, and safety.

- Implement agentic patterns for cloud infrastructure in your area of ownership, applying and helping refine team best practices for production AI agents.

- Operate and improve high-availability distributed systems on AWS, identifying and resolving performance, scalability, and stability issues within your domain.

- Contribute to the evolution of our developer control plane (Cortex) as an AI-augmented self-service platform, building features that let engineers scaffold services, debug deployments, and resolve issues through natural language.

- Document agentic architecture, best practices, and operational procedures for the systems you build.

## Requirements

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.

- 4+ years in cloud infrastructure, working on large-scale, high-availability, customer-facing distributed systems.

- Experience mentoring junior engineers and leading well-scoped platform initiatives within your team.

- Hands-on experience building and operating AI-driven systems in production, including agentic workflows that perform operational tasks.

- Strong working knowledge of AWS (EKS, Lambda, Bedrock, etc.) and experience with containerized and serverless architectures.

- Solid expertise in Kubernetes at scale and ability to implement complex, resilient solutions with guidance from senior/staff engineers.

- Strong knowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible) and experience applying both traditional IaC and agentic automation.

- Strong command of Datadog and observability practices, using metrics to drive decisions.

- Experience building AI-driven alerting or root-cause analysis systems is a plus.

- Strong adherence to security, privacy, and compliance best practices, with awareness of governance considerations for production AI systems (model safety, prompt injection prevention, data isolation).

- Experience with LLM orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, or custom agentic architectures) and production prompt engineering.

- Strong coding ability in Python and/or Go, with experience treating infrastructure and agentic systems as software.

- Ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, product, and security teams on cross-functional work.

## Benefits

The base salary range for this full-time position is $228,000-$279,000, plus equity and benefits.
