Senior AI Platform Engineer 


These engineers will operate as hands-on individual contributors, but they need to demonstrate an architect-level mindset when approaching problems.


The role requires the ability to take ideas from exploration → architecture → implementation → deployment → operational monitoring, ensuring the solutions deliver measurable value to both customers and the organization.


Role Responsibilities


The engineers will be responsible for:

  • Translating product or business ideas into technical architecture and implementation plans
  • Designing and implementing multi-tenant SaaS systems
  • Building AI-enabled services and agentic workflows
  • Developing scalable backend systems using AWS serverless architecture
  • Implementing AI-powered features using RAG and LLM integrations
  • Collaborating with product owners and pre-sales teams to refine requirements
  • Driving development from prototype → production → monitoring
  • Measuring and validating business impact and ROI of implemented solutions
  • Leveraging AI-assisted development tools to significantly accelerate delivery


We expect engineers who can deliver the productivity of multiple developers by effectively using modern agentic development tools.


Experience Requirements

  • 7–10 years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong hands-on experience building SaaS applications on AWS
  • Experience working on production systems at scale


Core AWS Architecture Skills (Mandatory)


Candidates must have hands-on experience with:

  • AWS Lambda
  • API Gateway
  • AWS Step Functions
  • Amazon SQS
  • Amazon S3
  • Aurora PostgreSQL / PostgreSQL
