So, it doesn't matter where you are; we are here to help you fast-track your independent career in the right direction. 🙂 Since our launch, Proxify's developers have successfully worked with 1200+ happy clients to build their products and growth features. 5000+ talented developers trust Proxify and its network to fulfill their dreams and objectives.

Proxify is shaped by a global network of supportive, talented developers interested in remote full-time jobs. Our Glassdoor (4.5/5) and Trustpilot (4.8/5) ratings reflect the trust developers place in us and our commitment to our members' success. The Role We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer on behalf of our client to build, scale, and maintain an Internal Developer Platform (IDP) that empowers application software teams to ship code safely, independently, and rapidly.

In this role, you will treat the developer platform as a product—building self-service infrastructure abstractions, automated CI/CD capabilities, and guardrails that eliminate operational toil for product developers. What We Are Looking For 5+ years of hands-on experience in platform engineering, site reliability engineering (SRE), or core DevOps, with a proven track record of designing and delivering Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs).

Expert-level mastery of Kubernetes administration, custom controller/operator architectures, service meshes (Istio/Linkerd), and continuous delivery via GitOps tools (ArgoCD or Flux). Deep proficiency using Terraform, OpenTofu, or Pulumi to construct modular, reusable infrastructure blueprints across cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Strong programming skills in Go or Python to build custom platform extensions, CLI tools, Kubernetes operators, and API integrations.

Practical experience building or integrating developer portals (e.g., Backstage, Port) and automated workflow engines to abstract infrastructure complexity. Hands-on experience establishing end-to-end telemetry standards using Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry for metric, log, and trace aggregation. Nice-to-Have Experience with cloud-native control plane abstractions like Crossplane. Exposure to FinOps practices, container cost monitoring (e.g., Kubecost), and automated resource optimization.
