Platform Solutions Engineer

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Serve as the technical link between a software platform and the organizations that adopt it, designing integrations and advising on deployment approaches. Also build and run the cloud infrastructure, release pipelines and monitoring that keep the service reliable at scale.

What you'll do

- Design technical solutions for clients who connect the software to their cloud and on-premises systems.

- Partner with sales, customer success and end users to map their workflows and plan scalable rollouts.

- Build and maintain secure AWS infrastructure covering compute, networking, container orchestration and storage.

- Refine the build-and-test workflows and the way software gets shipped to production.

- Create monitoring, logging and alerting that give engineering and support teams clear views of system health.

- Automate provisioning, configuration management and environment setup.

- Support API integration, authentication and secure data transfer between client systems and the platform.

- Troubleshoot deployment problems and act as the technical contact for complex accounts.

- Work with engineers so product features fit the infrastructure needs of customers.

- Write documentation, architecture guidelines and deployment playbooks.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Prior work delivering protected cloud setups and system connections for business clients.

- Proven ability to take a problem end to end without needing direction.

- Good judgment in balancing fast delivery against building for long-term scale.

- Hands-on AWS infrastructure experience across compute, containers, storage, identity and networking services.

- Skill in creating observability tooling that tracks metrics, event records, notifications and request paths.

- A university degree.

Bonus points

- Exposure to running services at both young ventures and well-established software-as-a-service businesses.

- Past work growing a service to handle fast increases in user demand or a broad public launch.

- Familiarity with writing in-house utilities, scripted automation or outage-handling processes.

- Experience with containers and orchestration tools such as Docker, Kubernetes or service mesh.
