Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Platform Engineer - **Company:** ANTIMETAL INC. - **Location:** New York, NY, United States - **Experience:** Experienced - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Code Review, Programming Tools, Distributed Systems, OAuth, Operational Data Store, Software Architecture, Service-Oriented Architecture, TypeScript, Large Language Models, Kubernetes, Api Gateway, Dynatrace - **Published:** September 4, 2026 - **Apply:** https://startup.jobs/platform-engineer-antimetal-8806125 ## About the Role * At least 3 years of experience in platform, infrastructure, or backend engineering, preferably at a high-growth or AI-native company. * Strong fundamentals in service-oriented architectures, networking, and systems design. You can reason about how data and traffic flow through a distributed system and what breaks first. * Proficient in TypeScript, with hands-on experience operating production services on Kubernetes. * Proven ability to take ambiguous goals from prototype to production, using customer feedback and operational data to drive product and architectural decisions. * Strong code and data modeling skills - clean, scalable, and easy for the next person to extend. * Take a product-focused approach to platform work. You measure success by whether the engineers you serve actually love and adopt what you built. * Use AI aggressively in your personal engineering workflow. We're all heavy users of Claude Code, and regularly add new AI tooling across our organization., * Experience with MCP, OAuth, API gateways, or multi-tenant integration platforms. * Experience with modern observability (OTEL, distributed tracing) and SRE best practices. * Experience building internal admin or developer tooling consumed by both humans and agents. * Experience working on agent or LLM systems - context management, tool use, sandboxing., * Identify as a builder. * Are excited to work in-person from our new and spacious office in New York. * Love working in a startup environment (experience in a startup or obsession with going zero-to-one). * Enjoy working with people who are ambitious, caring, and think in systems. * Thrive in a fast-paced iterative environment where experimentation is essential. ## Description This role is core to how we ship. You'll architect and operate the systems that every agent invocation, every customer onboarding, and every code review depends on - our internal admin tooling, our deploy and observability pipelines, our MCP gateway, and the integration substrate that determines whether a new customer gets value in days versus weeks. You'll partner closely with product, FDE, and research, and your work will compound across every team that builds on top of you. ## Related Videos - [Do TypeScript without TypeScript](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/327-do-typescript-without-typescript) - [Keeping applications secure by evolving OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100152-keeping-applications-secure-by-evolving-oauth-2-0-and-openid-connect) - [The Power of Purpose: Unlocking Potential and Innovation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1110-the-power-of-purpose-unlocking-potential-and-innovation) - [AI-Augmented DevOps with Platform Engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1614-ai-augmented-devops-with-platform-engineering) - [It's Not Vibe Coding If You Know What You're Doing](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100119-it-s-not-vibe-coding-if-you-know-what-you-re-doing) - [Delay the AI Overlords: How OAuth and OpenFGA Can Keep Your AI Agents from Going Rogue](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1637-delay-the-ai-overlords-how-oauth-and-openfga-can-keep-your-ai-agents-from-going-rogue) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline)
