The Role

We're hiring a Senior Platform Engineer to build and scale the infrastructure that powers Metaforms' AI automation platform.

This role is foundational — you'll own our platform architecture end-to-end, transforming it from startup-grade to enterprise-grade to support global research agencies and enterprise customers across the US and EU.

You'll design and implement multi-tenant, multi-region, and customer-managed (BYOC) deployment models, ensuring Metaforms meets the highest standards of scalability, reliability, and compliance.

If you're someone who thrives on solving deep technical infrastructure problems and wants to own greenfield architecture at scale — this is the role for you.

Key Focus AreasInfrastructure Evolution

Build and scale Metaforms' platform from early-stage to enterprise-ready — with multi-tenant architecture, regional deployments, and customer-managed (BYOC) infrastructure.

Deployment Models

Architect and implement four major deployment models:

• Multi-tenant SaaS: Strengthen tenant isolation, monitoring, and usage tracking.

• Single-tenant deployments: Automated per-customer infrastructure provisioning.

• Multi-region setups: Support US/EU/APAC deployments with data residency and compliance.

• BYOC model: Enable customers to deploy Metaforms securely within their own cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).

CI/CD & Developer Velocity

• Build multi-cloud CI/CD pipelines and automated testing infrastructure.

• Enable feature-branch environments and developer self-service tooling.

• Streamline deployment automation across environments and regions.

Operational Excellence

• Establish Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/IaC) across all environments.

• Set up monitoring, alerting, and observability systems.

• Define disaster recovery, audit logging, and access control frameworks.
  
  

What We're Looking ForCore Skills

• 5+ years in Platform, Infrastructure, or DevOps Engineering at B2B SaaS companies.

• Proven experience with multi-tenant SaaS and customer-managed deployments (BYOC).

• Deep expertise in multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).

• Proficiency in Docker, Kubernetes, and container orchestration.

• Strong background in multi-region architecture and data residency requirements.

• Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation).

• Built and managed CI/CD pipelines for large-scale production systems.

• Familiarity with enterprise-grade security, compliance, and SLAs.

Bonus Points

• Experience architecting SaaS for regulated industries or compliance-heavy clients.

• Exposure to Snowflake-, Databricks-, or Forsta-like deployment frameworks.

• Contributions to internal developer platforms (IDPs) or infrastructure tooling.
