    The Role

    We're looking for a Staff Platform Engineer to lead and scale the systems that power our product and engineering team. You'll be the architect and driving force behind the reliability, scalability, and velocity of our platform - designing the infrastructure that powers products used by millions of users, and defining how our company builds and ships software at scale.

    This is a high-impact, high-ownership role in an environment where we move quickly, set ambitious goals, and hold a high bar for speed and technical excellence. You'll drive long-term architectural decisions, lead high-leverage initiatives across teams, and set the technical standards for how we operate as we scale rapidly. You'll also play a key role in enabling engineers across the company to move faster while maintaining reliability and code quality.

    Our stack is React (web app), React Native (mobile app), Node.js, and Typescript, running on GCP with a serverless architecture (Firestore, Redis, Cloud Run).

    What you'll do
    • Architect and evolve our cloud infrastructure across GCP's serverless ecosystem (Cloud Run, Firestore, Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub, etc.) to support rapid growth in users and product use cases
    • Design fault-tolerant, high-throughput systems and ensure observability and performance are first-class citizens
    • Lead cross-functional initiatives that improve developer velocity, system performance, and scalability
    • Develop and oversee the CI/CD, release, and testing infrastructure that supports dozens of deployments per day and weekly app releases with confidence
    • Own company-wide reliability and performance metrics (uptime, latency, cost efficiency)
    • Partner with leadership to align infrastructure investments with company and product strategy
    • Drive organization-wide enablement through AI - establishing tooling, workflows, and best practices that make engineers across the company dramatically faster and more effective
    • Mentor and coach engineers at all levels - raising the technical bar across the organization
    • Champion a culture of speed, reliability, and operational excellence
    What you'll bring
    • 7-12+ years of infrastructure or backend engineering experience with a track record of driving high-impact, technically complex initiatives
    • Deep expertise in cloud architecture systems, with a strong command of system design, distributed systems, reliability engineering, and observability best practices
    • Demonstrated success scaling systems from millions to tens of millions of users
    • Mastery in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, developer environments, and operational tooling
    • Strong coding ability in Node.js/TypeScript and deep comfort debugging complex production systems
    • History of accelerating engineering velocity through thoughtful infrastructure design and automation
    • Fluency with AI tools and development workflows - you actively use AI to move faster and enable others to do the same
    • Deep sense of ownership, urgency, and accountability - you thrive in a fast, high-intensity environment
    • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence cross-team architecture and technical culture
    What we offer
    • 401(k) with up to 6% matching
    • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance for you and all your dependents (FSAs and HSA plans available)
    • Free OneMedical membership, telehealth, and virtual mental health services
    • Commuter benefits & contributions towards ClassPass and Citibike memberships
    • Take what you need paid time off
    • 14 paid holidays throughout the calendar year
    • Quarterly stipend to plan your own party and dogfood the product
    • Semiannual team off-sites
    • Get invited to exclusive parties
    In your application, please include a note on what excites you about Partiful
