development and IT services for the entertainment, financial, and logistics sectors. Our corporate projections offer a multitude of opportunities for professionals to elevate their careers

Position Title: Senior Platform Engineer
Location: US
What you will be doing:
This is not a standard DevOps posting. We are looking for one unusually capable, AI-native engineer to own our entire platform engineering and SRE function — using autonomous
agents, LLM-powered pipelines, and MCP-based tooling as force multipliers to do the work of a team, on-site, in close partnership with our engineering leadership.
You will inherit a mature, fully containerized AWS estate (9 EKS clusters, 27 accounts, 228 Kubernetes nodes), an Akamai CDN layer managing live traffic splits, GitHub Actions + Jenkins
CI/CD pipelines for a Webpack 5 micro-frontend monorepo, and an operational AI agent platform — OpsWhisperer — already in production monitoring 25 AWS accounts with a 91% autonomous resolution.
Required Skills & Experience
To excel in this role, you should possess:
● 10+ years of hands-on DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering experience in production AWS cloud environments.
● Deep AWS expertise: EKS, EC2, SQS, CloudWatch, IAM, Organizations, and multi-account architectures
● Strong Experience with Infrastructure as code tools like terraform or cloudformation
● Strong Kubernetes skills: cluster operations, node group management, workload isolation, taints/tolerations, auto-scaling
● Experience with Akamai or equivalent enterprise CDN — configuration, purge operations, traffic routing rules
● CI/CD ownership: GitHub Actions and/or Jenkins pipeline design, monorepo build systems, release gating
● Production experience building or operating AI agents — LLM integration, autonomous workflow design, prompt engineering
● Proficiency in Node.js and/or Python for automation, tooling, and MCP server development
● Observability stack ownership: Elastic/Kibana, log analysis, alerting design, SLO/SLI instrumentation
● Comfortable owning on-call responsibility for a production e-commerce platform with significant revenue exposure
● Strong written and verbal communication, will interface with engineering leadership and present findings to executives
Soft Skills:
● Strong problem-solving and debugging skills
● Excellent communication and collaboration abilities
● Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects
● Leadership and mentorship mindset
● Attention to detail and commitment to high-quality user experiences
Why you will love GTS:
● Join a powerful tech workforce and help us change the world through technology
● Professional development opportunities with international customers
● Collaborative work environment
● Career path and mentorship programs that will lead to new levels.
