Senior Platform Engineer – Architect

Role Overview

• Own Backstage: You will architect and build out Backstage so it acts as our central software catalog, holding all the metadata, ownership data, and telemetry for our high-performance engineering systems.
• Modernize Deployments: Our current deployment pipelines need an overhaul. You’ll help us move toward modern practices (GitOps, containerization, progressive delivery) so developers can ship code without friction—and without breaking critical financial workflows.
• Fix the DevEx: Build "golden paths" and self-service tools that abstract away the complexity of AWS. If a developer needs infrastructure, they shouldn't have to wait for someone to click buttons.
• SRE in Capital Markets: Bring your deep Linux SRE expertise to an environment where microseconds matter. You’ll support the upgrade and optimization of our Red Hat (RHEL) environments while we actively migrate latency-sensitive workloads off VMware and into a modernized AWS setup.
• Code the Infrastructure: Write clean, highly optimized Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CDK, etc.) to ensure everything we build is reproducible, version-controlled, and tuned for maximum performance.
• Pipelines: create and improve the pipelines to drive quality, and ensure that what we deliver does not put our services at risk.

Requirements

• 7+ years primarily focused on Platform Engineering, SRE, or modern DevOps.
• You genuinely care about the developer experience. You have real experience building Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs), and ideally, you've gotten your hands dirty configuring Backstage plugins and data models.
• You are a Linux expert, specifically with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). You know how to tune the OS for performance, troubleshoot complex issues, and scale systems under heavy load.
• You know your way around AWS and have a track record of moving workloads out of legacy on-prem datacenters (especially VMware) into the cloud.
• You are highly familiar with modern CI/CD, container orchestration (Docker/Kubernetes), and GitOps (ArgoCD/Flux).
• You can write solid automation and tooling in Python, Go, TypeScript (helpful for Backstage), or Bash.
• Bonus Points:
• You’ve contributed to open-source tools or built custom Backstage plugins.
• You know how to integrate complex telemetry (Datadog, Prometheus, etc.) directly into developer portals.
• Previous experience in Fintech, trading, or capital markets is great, but absolutely not required—we will teach you the domain.
