Job Description

Senior AI Platforms Engineer

hatch I.T.

• Contribute to the design and evolution of Expression's Agentic AI platform by defining scalable architectures for enterprise AI applications and services, including system architecture, core platform components, tooling, automation, coding standards, and platform performance, scalability, and reliability. • Architect, deliver, and optimize production-grade LLM services, agent workflows, orchestration layers, retrieval pipelines, and vector search technologies. • Provide technical leadership and mentorship: guide architecture and design reviews, grow engineers, and raise the bar for engineering quality and technical decision-making across the team. • Develop high-performance Python APIs and scalable backend services using FastAPI, asynchronous programming techniques, and modern software engineering practices. Set the technical direction and engineering standards for high-performance, scalable backend services and APIs, and champion modern software engineering best practices across the team. • Build and maintain the underlying AI platform that supports secure, observable, resilient, and production-ready AI workloads. • Design and implement AI governance capabilities, including guardrails, policy enforcement, model lifecycle management, responsible AI practices, and compliance with federal security and governance requirements. • Develop automated testing and evaluation strategies for AI-enabled applications, including prompt evaluation, model evaluation, regression testing, integration testing, and quality assurance. • Implement LLM observability, monitoring, logging, telemetry, performance metrics, and resilience strategies to ensure reliable production operation. • Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and deployment automationDefine and drive CI/CD and deployment automation strategy to support secure, efficient delivery of AI services. • Collaborate with Product, UX, Infrastructure, Security, and other cross-functional teams to continuously improve platform capabilities and deliver customer-focused solutions. • Collaborate with clients, lead product demonstrations, and communicate technical concepts and platform capabilities to both technical and executive audiences. • Produce clear technical documentation, architecture diagrams, design proposals, and other engineering artifacts.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, Data Science, or related fields. An advanced degree is preferred.
  • 8–10+ years of professional experience in Software Engineering designing and building enterprise software platforms.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership: leading architecture and design for complex production platforms, mentoring engineers, and driving technical decisions across teams.
  • Hands-on experience designing and building agent orchestration and LLM workflows (custom or framework-based); hands-on experience with frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI, or Strands is useful but not required.
  • Expert-level Python, including asyncio and asynchronous programming, FastAPI, Pydantic, type hinting, and modern development practices.
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Node.js for building production platform services, APIs, and SDKs.
  • Proven experience implementing retrieval architectures.
  • Experience designing and operating vector databases and both lexical and semantic search systems.
  • Strong experience designing distributed architectures for LLM-based applications.
  • Experience with self-hosted and edge model deployment: serving open and small language models (SLMs) with vLLM, Ollama, or llama.cpp, routing through LiteLLM, and autoscaling inference on Kubernetes (e.g., Karpenter) for on-premises, disconnected, and tactical environments.
  • Experience deploying applications using Docker and cloud-native services within AWS or Azure.
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or similar automation platforms.
  • Experience with Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and Helm, or equivalent), and modern cloud-native deployment practices.
  • Familiarity with AI governance, model lifecycle management, prompt engineering, and responsible AI principles.
  • Experience implementing LLM observability, monitoring, evaluation frameworks, and production telemetry.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to produce technical documentation and communicate effectively with technical and executive stakeholders.

Benefits

  • 401k matching
  • PPO and HDHP medical/dental/vision insurance
  • Education reimbursement up to $10,000/yr
  • Complimentary life insurance
  • Generous PTO and 11 days of holiday leave
  • Onsite gym facility and trainer
  • Commuter Benefits Plan
  • In-office Cold Brew Coffee

• Own the enterprise identity platform as an engineering system — architect SSO integrations, lifecycle workflows, MFA policy, and group provisioning in Okta using IaC as the source of truth; configuration drift is a bug, not a ticket • Engineer the identity lifecycle management layer — design access control models and codify provisioning/deprovisioning workflows in IaC, partnering with HR systems to eliminate manual access operations and return clean provisioning capability to the helpdesk tier • Engineer access governance across the cloud and SaaS portfolio — own role assignments, group structures, and access controls across cloud infrastructure and collaboration platforms; design and automate periodic access reviews so auditability is structural, not procedural • Harden the device-to-identity trust boundary — own device trust integrations between our identity provider and MDM platforms, ensuring device compliance signals are correctly evaluated in access policy and that the control surface is fully codified • Rationalize and consolidate legacy identity surface — lead the technical cleanup of orphaned accounts, stale SSO integrations, and guest access sprawl across the SaaS portfolio; treat this as technical debt reduction with measurable outcomes • Build the IAM measurement layer — define, instrument, and track KPIs (access review completion rates, provisioning latency, orphaned account age, ticket volume trends) that justify investment decisions and demonstrate program maturity to Security leadership • Define the identity layer of our access request platform — architect the entitlement structures and access controls exposed through our self-service access tooling; codify the configuration in IaC and own the integration contract between identity infrastructure and the employee-facing access experience • Contribute to a unified service catalog — ensure identity workflows are clearly surfaced through a single employee-facing entry point and that the handoff between self-service and engineer-owned provisioning is unambiguous • Use AI coding agents as a first-class part of the identity engineering workflow — draft and validate Terraform modules, provisioning logic, and access-policy changes with AI assistance, and own review of anything AI-generated before it reaches production identity infrastructure
