About the role

  • Senior Platform Engineer at ActiveProspect focused on improving developer experience through tooling, automation, and infrastructure management. Leading technical direction and incident response for scalable systems.

Responsibilities

  • Own outcomes end-to-end
  • Frame the problem, design the solution, ship it, and own whether it actually moved the metric
  • Descope to the cheapest version that works, and prototype in days, not weeks
  • Build for self-service, not for tickets
  • Treat the platform as a product and internal engineers as your customers
  • Understand their friction, then solve it with reusable, well-documented tooling
  • Own and evolve the paved road
  • Set the direction for our GitOps, Kubernetes (AWS EKS / ArgoCD), and serverless (AWS Lambda) patterns
  • Own reliability
  • Lead incident response for the systems you own
  • Architect AI-driven leverage
  • Design and operate AI agents and automation
  • Own access, security, and compliance
  • Design how we manage credentials and permissions for developers and automated processes
  • Make things cheaper
  • Own initiatives that measurably reduce infrastructure cost
  • Mentor on judgment and systems thinking

Requirements

  • 5+ years building, operating, and owning production infrastructure at scale
  • Deep expertise in a cloud environment (AWS) and with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes / EKS, Helm)
  • Strong command of CI/CD and GitOps (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD) and Git-based workflows
  • Hands-on expertise with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and configuration automation
  • Solid grasp of Linux (Ubuntu), production databases (PostgreSQL/RDS, DynamoDB, MySQL, MongoDB), and networking (load balancers, firewalls, routing, VPN)
  • A track record of shipping something you cared about end-to-end and owning the outcome
  • Treats developer experience as a product — measures adoption and delivery metrics (e.g., DORA) and iterates on tooling the way a PM iterates on a feature
  • Strong systems-design judgment in ambiguous contexts
  • Experience leading incidents and operating customer-facing production environments with a focus on uptime and service quality
  • Uses AI agents and coding tools as a daily driver
  • Clear written and verbal communication, plus mentorship experience
  • A security and reliability mindset that fits working with sensitive consumer data
  • A 4-year degree in engineering or computer science

Benefits

  • Flexible work arrangements
  • Professional development opportunities
