[Remote] Senior Platform Engineer
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. GC AI is the fastest-growing and most trusted legal AI platform for in-house legal teams. They are seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to help harden, simplify, and operationalize their production platform to meet the demands of enterprise customers.
Responsibilities
- Own and evolve our core platform infrastructure—networking, compute, storage, and deployment pipelines—on Google Cloud Platform
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that enable fast, safe, and reliable deployments
- Define and enforce infrastructure as code (IaC) practices using Terraform, Pulumi, or similar
- Unify logging and observability across services—making the platform easier to understand, debug, and operate
- Collaborate with fellow Engineers to maintain clean network boundaries, environment isolation, and operational hygiene
- Drive developer productivity by improving tooling, reducing toil, and building internal platform capabilities
- Contribute to engineering culture and technical direction—helping the team operate at a higher level
Skills
- Deep in GCP. You have production experience with IAM, service accounts, project isolation, and networking on Google Cloud Platform. You've operated infrastructure that real customers depend on
- Infrastructure as code is your default. You've built and maintained IaC with Terraform, Pulumi, or similar. You treat infrastructure drift like a bug
- A strong backend engineer. You write production-quality code, TypeScript preferred, and you're comfortable reasoning across the stack when platform decisions touch application behavior
- Observability-minded. You've built or maintained logging and observability pipelines at scale. You know what it takes to make a system legible to the people who run it
- Pragmatic about risk. You reason about operational risk clearly, make tradeoffs deliberately, and ship infrastructure improvements without waiting for perfect conditions
- An owner, not a renter. You fix problems without being asked, follow through on every detail, and communicate proactively when circumstances change
- Experience acting as a technical lead on a team or vertical; strong communication skills
- Experience with platform engineering, internal developer platforms (IDPs), or developer tooling
- Prior work in regulated or enterprise-focused environments
- Familiarity with SRE practices, incident response, or on-call workflows
