Platform Engineer

Role overview Own the infrastructure and security behind a platform deployed across commercial cloud and restricted government environments. You’ll build and operate the Kubernetes, networking, delivery, and observability foundations, making deployments repeatable while supporting engineers and AI-driven workflows.

Responsibilities - Operate Kubernetes clusters and GitOps pipelines across commercial, FedRAMP High, and IL5 environments. - Manage networking and observability, and make new environment deployments repeatable. - Adapt or maintain platform tooling for restricted networks, including custom builds of key services. - Develop infrastructure and deployment tools for engineers and AI agents, including automated remediation workflows. - Work with deployment teams to integrate customer data and support large user populations. - Own infrastructure after release and explain how its security controls work.

Requirements - At least five years of experience in platform, infrastructure, or security engineering. - Production Kubernetes expertise, including cluster operations, networking, GitOps, and zero-downtime upgrades. - Experience building infrastructure relied on by other engineers. - Experience leading through a real infrastructure migration or scaling event, including understanding what failed. - A secure-by-default approach covering hardened images, least-privilege access, network policies, and secrets management. - Eligibility to work on U.S. government projects as a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person; security clearance is not required.

Nice to have Experience with FedRAMP, IL, HIPAA, or other regulated environments; PostgreSQL operations; backend TypeScript; or open-source infrastructure. Previous or active security clearance is a plus.
