# Senior Platform Engineer

- **Company:** TWO STORMS, LLC
- **Location:** United States (Remote available)
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Cloud Computing, Continuous Integration, Programming Tools, Identity and Access Management, Python (Programming Language), Key Management, Prometheus, TypeScript, Datadog, Pulumi, Grafana, Cloudformation, Kubernetes, Terraform
- **Published:** November 10, 2026
- **Apply:** https://www.juju.com/job/28_25197_7b2dafe4dfae0f304dad0cad64dba5d6

## About the Role

* 5+ years across platform, infrastructure or backend engineering, with substantial production infrastructure ownership
 * Strong Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation or comparable infrastructure-as-code experience
 * Production experience with GCP, AWS or Azure, with GCP particularly relevant
 * Experience building CI/CD and internal developer tooling, rather than simply using an established platform
 * Kubernetes, ECS or similar container orchestration experience
 * Backend engineering ability in a language such as Go, Python or TypeScript
 * Hands-on knowledge of observability tooling such as Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus or OpenTelemetry
 * A strong understanding of IAM, secrets management and secure-by-default infrastructure
 * Comfort making production infrastructure changes independently in a small engineering team

Where you'll stand out

Experience in payments, FinTech or another regulated environment will translate particularly well. The same goes for engineers who've built compliance-focused platform tooling, worked across GCP and AWS, or supported infrastructure through rapid transaction or engineering-team growth.

## Description

Platform engineering gets interesting when a bad infrastructure decision can affect real money moving in real time.

You'll own significant pieces of the platform underneath the engineering team, from Terraform and environment provisioning through to CI/CD, observability and internal developer tooling. There's a defined backlog to attack, but not layers of process telling you how to execute it.

This isn't a role for someone who's only operated inside a platform that was already mature. They need someone who's built or materially improved infrastructure themselves, can safely make production changes with a high degree of independence, and likes creating tooling that makes every other engineer faster.

What you'll be working on:

 * Owning infrastructure-as-code across networking, IAM, VPCs and environment provisioning, including an ongoing Terraform migration
 * Hardening CI/CD, secrets management and self-service deployment tooling
 * Building internal abstractions and tooling that let product engineers ship without becoming infrastructure experts
 * Expanding observability across service instrumentation, metrics collection, monitoring and alerting
 * Supporting production cloud infrastructure and reliability across messaging systems
 * Building tooling around compliance, access controls and infrastructure remediation
 * Improving developer onboarding, local development workflows, cloud cost visibility and infrastructure documentation
