[Hiring] Platform Engineer @Vitalize

Role Description

We are hiring our second platform team member! The role starts with fundamentals of cloud infrastructure like AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform. Building on that is a deep understanding of common infrastructure patterns like cybersecurity, observability, and CI/CD. Finally, it expands to include developer tooling and building internal apps and features that extend beyond the engineering team (e.g. internal agent workflows, onboarding tools, etc.). This means: AWS/EKS -> Vanta/Grafana/Buildkite -> React/Effect/Bun.

What You'll Do

• Own CI/CD end to end: pipeline code, test orchestration, deploy safety, preview environments (we use Buildkite + self-hosted runners)
• Maintain our EKS cluster (along with the AWS infrastructure that supports it)
• Build developer tooling with internal stakeholders at the forefront
• Own what observability means: What are the right tools? What’s the best way to get alerts? How do we get the right data to the right people at the right time?
• Maintain a strong security and compliance posture across all services, both internal and external
• Lead AI adoption across Engineering: decide which agent workflows to integrate, which tools to adopt, and build and maintain custom solutions for stakeholders across the organization
• Extend beyond traditional Infra/DevOps to include:
  • Product analytics capture and analysis - working directly with product managers to communicate this information upward
  • Supporting the data science team - helping build and maintain data pipelines to share critical information with leadership & customers

Qualifications

• Deep passion for the space
• Empathy for other engineers and their needs
• Desire to own your work end to end (including when it goes wrong)
• A desire to ship fast and fix fast - bias to action
• Eager to adopt cutting edge ways of working (e.g. what does it mean to deeply integrate with AI tools?)
• A mentality of "our code" - you might not have written it, but we're a team and we're going to fix it together

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Flexible PTO
• Unlimited travel budget to visit customer sites
• Bi-annual company off-sites
• Free meals in-office
• $5,000 relocation bonus
• Desk setup reimbursement
• Commuter benefits
• Monthly gym/wellness stipend
• An awesome office in Jackson Square, steps from the water
