Platform Integration Software Engineer

Platform Integration Software Engineer About the Opportunity

We’re hiring a Platform Integration Software Engineer to help take advanced detection systems from prototype to production‑grade, mission‑critical services. This is a fast‑moving, high‑impact engagement where you’ll work on two parallel, real‑world engineering initiatives that support large‑scale infrastructure operations.

If you enjoy event‑driven systems, care deeply about reliability and observability, and want to see your work deployed and used quickly—this role was built for you.

• Strong experience building cloud‑native services (functions, containers)
• Expertise in concurrency, state management, and performance tuning
• Proven ability to design for failure and operational resilience
• Comfortable owning services end‑to‑end, including documentation and support readiness

• Hands‑on experience with Event Hubs, Kafka, or Service Bus
• Deep understanding of replay, checkpointing, back pressure, and delivery semantics
• Experience managing schema evolution and versioned event payloads
• Strong monitoring and DLQ management practices

• Building secure CI/CD pipelines with automated testing and quality gates
• Instrumenting systems with logs, metrics, and distributed tracing
• Defining and monitoring SLOs; creating actionable alerts and dashboards
• Shipping changes safely and frequently in production environments

This program consists of two concurrent work streams, each executed by a small, cross‑functional team:

• Retrofit systems for existing infrastructure
• New‑build systems for next‑generation deployments

Each team includes:

• 2 Software Engineers
• 1 Product Manager
• 1 Data Scientist
• (Occasionally) a Mechanical or Electrical SME

You will work closely with a paired Platform Integration Engineer, with minimal cross‑team dependency—allowing for speed, ownership, and focus.

This role is centered on productionization and operationalization—turning detection logic into reliable, scalable, and observable cloud services.

• Designing and implementing event‑driven services to move detection data through production systems
• Building durable producers and consumers with replay, checkpointing, back pressure, and ordering guarantees
• Implementing reliability patterns: retries, idempotency, DLQs, and defensive error handling
• Creating and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with security and quality gates
• Instrumenting services with logging, metrics, tracing, SLOs, and alerts
• Writing runbooks and operational documentation to support production readiness
• Partnering with analytics and solutions engineers to harden low/no‑code detectors into production services
• Supporting production validation and incident triage when needed

• Languages:
  
  C# (preferred), C++ or Rust acceptable
• Cloud & Messaging:
  Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Event Hubs / Kafka, Service Bus
• Dev Ops:
  Azure Dev Ops CI/CD
• Architecture:
  Event‑driven, distributed systems
• Focus Areas:
  Reliability, observability, scale, operational excellence

• Design clean, resilient, highly observable systems
• Anticipate failure modes before they happen
• Understand messaging semantics deeply—not just “how,” but “why”
• Collaborate closely with analytics partners to move fast without breaking production

• Can implement features but rely on others for reliability, observability, or release rigor

• Work on cutting‑edge detection and telemetry systems
• High visibility, high trust, and real ownership
• Modern cloud tooling with minimal bureaucracy
• A team culture that values engineering craftsmanship
• Opportunity to prove impact quickly—and extend beyond the initial engagement
