Overview

We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Platform Engineer to help design, build, and productionize a workflow orchestration platform

that underpins our marketing operations.

This role is focused on building reliable, scalable software rather than providing architectural advice. You will work alongside data

engineers, frontend developers, and cloud engineers to deliver a production-grade orchestration engine that coordinates campaign

execution across multiple systems.

Our platform is built using Python, Prefect, AWS, and Snowflake, integrating with custom frontend applications, middleware services and

internal APIs. We are looking for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering problems, building robust systems, and taking

ownership of production environments.

What You'll Be Working On

You'll be helping to build an orchestration platform responsible for:

Executing and monitoring complex business workflows
Orchestrating data movement between Snowflake and downstream systems
Integrating with custom frontend applications, middleware, and internal APIs
Managing scheduled and event-driven workloads
Supporting multiple deployment environments (Development, Test and Production)
Providing operational visibility into workflow execution, failures, and performance
Ensuring workflows are reliable, repeatable, and recoverable

This is an opportunity to build a platform rather than simply maintain one.

Responsibilities

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will:

Design, develop and maintain workflow orchestration using Python and Prefect
Build reliable, scalable, and observable data workflows
Integrate with Snowflake, REST APIs, middleware, and internal applications
Design deployment pipelines and release processes across multiple environments
Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting for production workloads
Design retry strategies, recovery mechanisms, and rerun processes for failed workflows
Implement secure configuration, authentication, and secrets management
Work closely with Data Engineers, Frontend Developers, and Cloud Engineers to deliver end-to-end solutions
Produce operational documentation, deployment guides, and runbooks
Support production releases and troubleshoot issues when required
Contribute to engineering standards, code quality, and platform best practices .

Technical Environment

Our current technology stack includes:

Essential Skills & Experience

We're looking for someone who has:

Strong commercial experience developing applications in Python
Experience building and supporting production workflow orchestration platforms
Hands-on experience with Prefect or a comparable orchestration framework
Infrastructure as Code (Terraform is preferable)
Strong SQL skills and experience working with Snowflake or another modern cloud data warehouse
Experience deploying and operating applications in AWS
Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
Strong understanding of monitoring, logging and observability
Experience troubleshooting production systems and data pipelines
Experience integrating applications through APIs and distributed services
Strong software engineering practices, including testing, version control and code reviews
A practical approach to security, including secrets management, least-privilege access and environment separation.
