Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # AI Platform Engineer, DevX - **Company:** Brain Corporation - **Location:** San Francisco, CA, United States - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Bash Shell, Continuous Integration, Software Design Documents, Programming Tools, Github, Design of User Interfaces, Python (Programming Language), Platform as a Service (PAAS), TypeScript, Rust (Programming Language), Datadog, Circleci, Caching, AI Platforms, Material UI, Kubernetes, Free and Open-Source Software, Build Tools, Front End Software Development, Docker, Golang - **Published:** June 20, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=85df86f84f42f998 ## About the Role Do you have experience in UI design systems?, * Have 5+ years building developer-facing infrastructure: monorepo platforms, build systems, CI/CD, or internal tooling. * Have hands-on depth with at least one modern monorepo tool (Nx, Bazel, Pants, Buck, Turborepo) and the willingness to go deeper. * Have strong fluency with CI/CD systems at scale (GitHub Actions, Buildkite, CircleCI, or similar): matrix design, caching strategies, secret flow, parallelism. * Are fluent in at least two of: Go, Python, TypeScript, Rust, Bash. Platform & Product Mindset * Have shipped developer platforms that real engineers adopted. * Have measured developer friction and shown clear before / after impact from tooling, CI, build, release, or workflow improvements. * Have strong intuition for developer experience, paved paths, and long-term maintainability. * Are comfortable owning the full lifecycle: design doc, MVP, hardening, adoption. Production & Reliability * Have owned developer-facing systems with real uptime and operational responsibility. * Are familiar with observability tooling and incident response. ## Description This is a force-multiplier role: your work compounds as we add teams, services, and customers. BrainCo's monorepo spans Python, TypeScript, and Go, runs on Nx, and ships to production environments that include regulated and air-gapped customer deployments. As we grow from a handful of teams to dozens, the leverage of this role compounds. Your job is to discover, measure, and remove developer friction. You should be comfortable going from "this workflow is slow or confusing" to instrumented evidence, a shipped improvement, and clear before / after impact., * Design internal CLIs, scaffolding, local dev stacks (Tilt, Docker, Kubernetes), and code-quality infrastructure (lint, typecheck, format, pre-commit). * Own the developer-facing experience for deployment and environment workflows, while partnering with Infrastructure on the underlying cloud, Kubernetes, networking, and runtime substrate. * Create paved paths the team actually wants to use - not guardrails that get bypassed., * End-to-end ownership: architecture, implementation, rollout, observability, on-call, and iteration based on internal user feedback. * Partner closely with every engineering team. Drive adoption through quality, not mandates. You Might Be a Great Fit If You… We're looking for engineers who treat developer experience as a product - engineers who reach for users, not just specs., * Built or significantly contributed to a remote build cache, custom build system, or hermetic build pipeline (Bazel, Nix, etc.). * Led a polyrepo monorepo (or reverse) migration at scale. * Experience applying DORA / SPACE or other DX metrics in practice. * Background in release engineering, supply-chain security (SLSA, Sigstore), or artifact management. * Built internal PaaS, dev environments, or scaffolding generators. * Experience building or maintaining a frontend platform or design system - shared component library, design tokens, Storybook / visual-regression infra, a11y or perf budgets across apps. * Open-source contributions to Nx plugins, GitHub Actions, or related developer tooling. * Exposure to multi-tenant, regulated, or air-gapped deployment environments. Why This Role Matters You'll set the ceiling on how fast every other engineer at BrainCo can ship. As we grow from a handful of teams to dozens - building AI systems for governments and regulated industries - the platform that lets us move quickly without breaking what matters becomes one of the highest-leverage systems in the company. ## Related Videos - [Go with the Flow: Stop the Leaks Before Your Memory's a Waterfall!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100073-go-with-the-flow-stop-the-leaks-before-your-memory-s-a-waterfall) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [Platform Engineering vs. DevOps Why not both?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/885-platform-engineering-vs-devops-why-not-both) - [Scoring 2000 Products per Request: Performance Pitfalls in Golang](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2073-scoring-2000-products-per-request-performance-pitfalls-in-golang) - [Forget Developer Platforms, Think Developer Productivity!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1121-forget-developer-platforms-think-developer-productivity) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Why developer experience matters](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/514-why-developer-experience-matters) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [What is Software Engineering in the Age of AI?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/640-what-is-software-engineering-in-the-age-of-ai)
