What you'll will be doing: As a GenAI Platform Engineer , you will help build and scale the platform capabilities that enable teams across the company to develop, deploy, and operate LLM-powered applications, agents, and MCP-based integrations. The team focuses on making it easier for engineers to build reliable GenAI systems in production, with strong foundations around developer experience, infrastructure, observability, security, and scalability. You will work on platform capabilities that can be reused across different teams and business use cases, helping engineers move faster without having to solve the same infrastructure problems repeatedly. This is a highly technical role at the intersection of platform engineering, distributed systems, and GenAI. Develop tooling and infrastructure that improves the developer experience for building, testing, deploying, and operating GenAI systems. Design and operate services that handle areas such as model access, tool integration, orchestration, evaluation, observability, and runtime infrastructure. Build scalable and reliable infrastructure on Kubernetes. Work closely with engineering teams to understand their use cases and turn common requirements into reusable platform capabilities. Support technically complex and high-impact use cases, helping teams move from experimentation to production. Own projects end to end, from architecture and design through implementation, deployment, and operation. Identify areas of the platform that can be simplified, standardized, or made more reliable and scalable. Work in a cross-functional and cross-border environment with engineers and teams in locations such as Amsterdam, Madrid, San Francisco, and Bangalore. Collaborate closely with other platform, infrastructure, security, and product teams. Launch early, iterate often, and use feedback from internal developers to continuously improve the platform.
