Description For Senior Platform Engineer, Infrastructure & Security

Fieldguide is establishing a new state of trust for global commerce and capital markets through automating and streamlining the work of assurance and audit practitioners specifically within cybersecurity, privacy, and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). As a Senior Platform Engineer on the Infrastructure Platform team, you'll be responsible for the stability, resiliency, security, and performance of the underlying infrastructure that powers the multinational Fieldguide cloud platform.

The platform is primarily composed of TypeScript-based microservices and serverless functions, managing Kubernetes clusters on AWS and leveraging Helm, GitHub Actions, and Terraform. You'll serve as a steward of the platform, designing and implementing infrastructure to meet scalability goals while fostering a learning culture through code reviews and continuous improvement.

We're based in San Francisco but built as a remote-first company, backed by top investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Floodgate, Y Combinator, and more. Our values include being Fearless, Fast, Lovable, Owners, Win-win, and Inclusive. We offer competitive compensation with meaningful ownership, unlimited PTO, 401k, wellness benefits including therapy sessions, and flexible work schedules.

As an early-stage startup employee, you'll have the opportunity to shape the future of business trust while working with a team that's inclusive, driven, humble and supportive. We make audit practitioners' lives easier by eliminating up to 50% of their work and improving work-life balance. The role requires collaboration with development teams and business leaders to ensure world-class scalability and reliability of our products.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading infrastructure design and implementation
  • Conducting code reviews and root cause analysis
  • Serving as infrastructure subject matter expert
  • Coordinating multi-region deployments and telemetry improvements
  • Managing high-uptime, globally distributed environments
  • Implementing security and compliance measures

Join us if you have deep knowledge of Linux containers, Kubernetes, AWS, observability tools, and experience with distributed systems reliability. We're looking for someone who shares our values and enthusiasm for building great culture and product.
