THE ROLE

We’re looking for an experienced Platform Engineer to own and scale the systems that power our product and team. You’ll build and maintain the core infrastructure that powers Partiful's products and enables your teammates to move quickly, confidently, and securely — from CI/CD pipelines and observability tools to scalable backend architecture and cloud services.

This is a fast-paced, 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 work closely with our product and platform teams to ensure reliability, performance, and developer velocity as we scale. Our stack is React (web app), React Native (mobile app), Node.js, and Typescript, running on GCP with a serverless architecture.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

- Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure infrastructure across GCP’s ecosystem (Cloud Functions, Firestore, Cloud Tasks, Redis, Pub/Sub, etc.)

- Collaborate with other engineers to design performant APIs, databases, and backend systems

- Improve reliability and observability across our stack (monitoring, alerting, logging, tracing)

- Evolve our CI/CD pipelines and developer environments to maximize speed and confidence in shipping

- Empower others (and yourself) to use AI tools effectively and safely across the development process

- Own system performance, uptime, and scalability as usage grows

- Implement security best practices, from secrets management to access control

- Respond to and help prevent production incidents

- Join an ambitious team that moves fast, works hard, and loves what we build — plus, attend really cool parties!

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:

- 3–11 years of infrastructure or backend engineering experience in a fast-paced or high-growth environment

- Experience designing and managing serverless or event-driven systems at scale

- Strong understanding of CI/CD workflows and best practices

- Experience with observability systems (such as Sentry, GCP Cloud Logging & Metrics Explorer)

- Solid grasp of networking, security, and performance tuning fundamentals

- Comfort working in Typescript/Node.js environments

- A builder’s mindset — you enjoy automating, optimizing, and empowering teams through great tooling

- A habit of leveraging AI tools to move faster, debug smarter, and prototype more effectively

- Deep sense of ownership and dedication to delivering ambitious outcomes on fast timelines

- A love of tackling complex, demanding challenges head-on

- A collaborative, pragmatic approach — you care about outcomes more than ego

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

- Parental leave

- Quarterly stipend to plan your own party and dogfood the product

- Semiannual team off-sites

- Get invited to exclusive parties 🎉

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
