Senior Platform Engineer

the company is the operating system for governed financial intelligence. We build governance and intelligence infrastructure that enables artificial intelligence to operate safely, explain ably, and at institutional scale.

We exist because the level of financial guidance historically available to a small group should be accessible to many more people. By combining AI with deep institutional infrastructure, we help financial institutions deliver more personalized, responsible, and life-changing financial support to millions of individuals.

We’re building mission-critical systems in a highly regulated domain, and we care deeply about doing it right. If you’re motivated by meaningful problems, high standards, and shaping infrastructure that improves financial outcomes, you’ll feel at home here.

We're looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our growing Platform Engineering team and play a critical role in shaping how we build, deploy, and operate software. You'll work alongside our Staff Platform Engineer and collaborate closely with the broader Engineering team. This role sits at the intersection of enablement and governance—you'll empower our engineering teams to move fast while ensuring everything we do meets the highest standards for security and compliance.

You’ll own our GCP infrastructure, build out scalable environments, and establish the standards and tooling that make our engineers productive. At the same time, you’ll be the guardian of our security posture and compliance commitments, ensuring we meet NIST & SOC-2 requirements without slowing down innovation.

• Participate in incident response, root cause analysis, and postmortems
• Contribute to architectural decisions and help establish engineering standards
• Mentor team members and share knowledge across the organization

• 5+ years of experience in platform engineering, Dev Ops, SRE, or infrastructure roles
• Strong hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Azure
• Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools, particularly Terraform
• Experience designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines (Git Hub Actions, Cloud Build, or similar)

• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (NIST, SOC-2) and implementing controls to meet audit requirements
• Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash, or similar)
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively with engineering teams

• Experience in Fintech or other regulated industries
• Knowledge of Kubernetes and container orchestration
• Experience with API management platforms (e.g., Apigee)
• Background in observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar)
