Senior Platform Engineer Remote (US) | Up to $225K DOE + Equity About Our Client Our client is a venture-backed, YC-incubated AI-native company building the autonomous operating layer for a multi-trillion-dollar regulated industry. They're deploying production agent systems into mission-critical, real-world environments where reliability, security, and compliance are non-negotiable. The team has raised from top-tier investors including operator-turned-VCs from the megacap tech world, ships proprietary foundation models that benchmark above frontier LLMs on domain-specific reasoning, and is scaling rapidly off the back of triple-digit ARR growth. This is a high-performance environment. The team operates on the principle that "4 months equals 1 year" of output, and the bar is set accordingly. The Opportunity You'll be the senior platform owner for the production environment that runs the company's full agent fleet. The infrastructure spans multiple cloud providers (not single-cloud), powers a customer-facing AI product operating under strict regulatory and data-handling requirements, and serves enterprise customers in a vertical where downtime has real-world consequences. You'll partner directly with the Head of Engineering and founding team to take a loosely scoped platform charter and turn it into a reliable, automated, cost-efficient foundation.
