Platform Engineer
PlayerZero, Atlanta
The role
As a Platform Engineer, you’ll build and evolve the backend services and shared capabilities that power PlayerZero. You’ll work across application code, data models, integrations, and infrastructure to make the platform more reliable, maintainable, and easier to extend.
Our platform work spans communications, billing, shared services, and the runtime supporting AI agents. Your initial focus will reflect the team’s priorities and your strengths, with opportunities to contribute across these areas.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You’ll deliver production code, guide architectural decisions, and improve existing systems through incremental changes. You’ll also partner with SRE to ensure the services you build are observable, deployable, and efficient to run.
What you will do
What you will do
- Build and own platform services. Design, implement, and operate backend capabilities using Kotlin and the JVM.
- Evolve the architecture incrementally. Improve boundaries within a large codebase, reduce coupling, and simplify existing systems while keeping production stable.
