We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to provide hands-on engineering support for an internal audit and code-modification platform built on GitLab CI/CD pipelines and LLM-powered agentic workflows. You will execute against an existing backlog, improve system reliability and observability, support telemetry and run management, and enhance the developer experience for reviewing AI-generated merge requests using Python. This is a three-month project engagement.

What you will do:

• Provide hands-on engineering support for an internal audit and code-modification platform;
• Execute against an existing backlog and deliver tactical platform improvements;
• Improve system reliability, observability, and operational visibility;
• Support telemetry, logging, debugging, and run management processes;
• Enhance the developer experience for reviewing AI-generated merge requests using Python;
• Support system maintenance, operational improvements, and GitLab CI/CD pipeline execution;
• Work with LLM-powered and agentic workflows, ensuring reliability and usability;
• Support internal engineering teams and platform users;
• Improve the reliability, visibility, and usability of the current platform;
• Contribute to code review workflows, automated remediation processes, and platform enhancements.

Must haves:

• 5+ years of experience with GitLab CI/CD pipelines, merge request workflows, and pipeline debugging;
• Senior-level backend or platform engineering experience, ideally with Python;
• Experience working with LLM, prompt-driven, or agentic workflows, including input/output validation and deterministic execution patterns;
• Strong understanding of observability, including logging, telemetry, debugging, run tracking, and operational visibility;
• Experience supporting internal developer tools or platforms used by multiple engineering teams;
• Ability to execute tactical improvements independently without requiring extensive direction or re-architecture;
• Comfortable reviewing and improving generated code changes, codemods, and automated merge requests;
• Strong communication skills for supporting internal engineering customers and translating use cases into implementation work;
• Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to haves:

• Experience building or maintaining developer experience tooling for code review, audits, or automated remediation;
• Familiarity with GitHub or GitLab extensions, repository audits, or large-scale source-code analysis;
• Experience with codemod frameworks or automated code transformation across large codebases;
• Experience optimizing LLM token usage, cost tracking, and per-job reporting;
• Knowledge of MCP, internal orchestration systems, or agent gateway patterns;
• Prior experience supporting centralized engineering platforms used across multiple product teams.
