Platform Engineer

For decades, DTN has been the silent force behind some of the world’s most critical industries—helping businesses navigate complexity, uncertainty, and risk with smarter, faster decisions. From agriculture to energy to weather intelligence, our proprietary Operational Decisioning Platform transforms raw data into decision-grade insights—enabling companies to optimize supply chains, ensure market stability, and safeguard infrastructure against disruption. We don’t follow trends—we set the standard for precision, trust, and operational impact.

DTN is at an exciting inflection point. Building off a foundation of financial strength, profitability, and industry trust, we’re accelerating growth and expanding our global footprint. Our purpose-built solutions—powered by AI and honed by decades of vertical expertise—are helping some of the world’s most significant enterprises thrive amid operational constraints and uncover new opportunities in a fast-changing world.

DTN is seeking a talented Platform Engineer to help build and evolve the foundational cloud-native capabilities of our Operational Decisioning Platform (ODP).

The DTN Operational Decisioning Platform is an internal platform that packages cloud infrastructure into purpose-built, higher-level capabilities so that our engineers, solutions teams, and customers can build data products, applications, and AI-powered tools without managing the underlying cloud infrastructure themselves.

As a Platform Engineer, you will build and deliver features across the platform's developer-facing APIs, software development kits (SDKs), command-line interfaces (CLIs), module framework, and managed services. You will work autonomously on well-scoped engineering initiatives while collaborating with senior engineers who provide technical guidance, design reviews, and mentorship.

This is an opportunity for an engineer with several years of professional experience to deepen their expertise in AWS cloud-native technologies, distributed systems, and platform engineering. You will help build infrastructure that other engineers depend on while developing the technical judgment and ownership skills needed to advance toward a senior engineering role.

Platform Feature Development and Delivery

• Design, build, test, and deploy platform features from initial planning through production delivery.
• Implement service logic, module functionality, and business logic supporting the DTN Operational Decisioning Platform.
• Develop and extend developer-facing APIs, SDKs, CLIs, and managed platform capabilities.
• Write and maintain infrastructure-as-code configurations required to provision and deploy platform services.
• Independently own moderately complex engineering features from development through deployment, with minimal oversight.
• Solve day-to-day technical challenges independently while escalating architectural and design questions to senior engineers when appropriate.

Module Framework and Distributed Systems

• Contribute to the development and evolution of the platform's module framework.
• Implement interface contracts and business logic within a framework that manages common platform requirements.
• Work with framework capabilities supporting authentication, authenticated communication, dispatch, validation, metrics, retries, and reconciliation.
• Develop reliable software components that integrate effectively with the platform's shared services and architectural standards.
• Apply distributed-systems principles, including asynchronous processing, retry handling, idempotency, and reliable service interactions.
• Contribute to modular, reusable platform capabilities that enable other engineering teams to build applications and data…
