Senior Platform Engineer

Overview

Senior Platform Engineer role focused on designing and building internal developer platform services and the infrastructure they run on, with strong product thinking and a focus on developer experience for game development teams.

What you'll do

• Build self-service workflows and golden paths that let game teams provision environments, deploy, and troubleshoot independently, backed by clean APIs and maintainable code.
• Design, build, and maintain internal developer platform capabilities (CI/CD, environments, observability, infrastructure).
• Make architectural and design trade-offs for the services you build, including API contracts, data models, and testing strategy, not just the infrastructure they run on.
• Identify and resolve developer pain points through data, feedback, and hands-on investigation.
• Promote engineering excellence, including reliability, automation, and maintainability.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather requirements and drive improvements.
• Own operational aspects of systems, including monitoring, SLIs/SLOs, and on-call participation.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and long-term platform strategy.

What you'll need

• 5-10+ years of software engineering experience (platform, infrastructure, or DevOps focus).
• Strong product mindset with a passion for improving developer experience.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals, demonstrated by designing, implementing, and maintaining production services in at least one of C#, Go, Python, or TypeScript, not just scripts and glue code.
• Experience building and operating distributed systems on AWS in containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.

• Background in internal developer platforms or large-scale tooling.
