Software Engineer II, Platform

Quick Facts

Role: Software Engineer II (Platform)

Description

Own the design, delivery, and operation of platform systems, balancing fast delivery with long-term maintainability and reliability. Define reusable “paved path” standards (Terraform modules, Dev Container templates, CI/CD workflows) and uphold engineering standards for testing, security, reliability, observability, secrets handling, and feature-flag hygiene. Improve observability and incident workflows, mentor teammates, and support developer experience and an internal AI skills marketplace with quality and safety governance.

Responsibilities

• Drive day-to-day platform design, delivery, and operations.
• Build and evolve the “paved path” for other teams using reusable Terraform modules, Dev Container templates, CI/CD workflows, and golden-path patterns.
• Set and enforce standards across the organization for testing, reliability, security, observability, secrets handling, and feature-flag hygiene.
• Improve observability in Grafana and incident workflows in Incident.io to detect and resolve issues with durable fixes.
• Curate and grow an internal AI skills marketplace, setting quality and safety standards and reviewing submissions.
• Mentor Engineer I/II teammates and provide high-signal design and code reviews with cross-team/platform impact.
• Partner with product and design to shape scope, surface risks, and plan realistic roadmaps.
• Lead platform-level and cross-service incident response, focusing on durable prevention instead of one-off patches.
• Champion developer experience (onboarding, build/deploy times, and reducing cognitive load).

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (or related) or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience with meaningful time on platform, infrastructure, or systems-level engineering.
• Deep backend expertise and full-stack fluency.
• Mastery of C#/F# on .NET Core with experience building Minimal APIs, hosted services, and serverless functions.
• Hands-on Terraform experience designing reusable modules/templates for other teams.
• Strong GitHub experience including repo/branch governance and GitHub Actions CI/CD.
• Relational database expertise (SQL Server, Oracle, or PostgreSQL) and event-driven messaging experience (Kafka, Azure Service Bus).
• Practical experience with secrets management (e.g., Doppler or equivalent) and feature flagging/progressive delivery (e.g., LaunchDarkly or equivalent).
• Experience with Dev Containers (or comparable local environment tooling) and Grafana-based dashboards/alerting (or comparable tools).
• Experience with incident management tooling/process (e.g., Incident.io) and interest or hands-on experience with internal AI tooling ecosystems for governing a marketplace of reusable AI skills/agents.
