Senior Platform Engineer
Bestow
ABOUT BESTOW
Life insurance is one of the world's most important products. It's also one of the hardest to build, distribute, and modernize. Bestow exists to change that.
Bestow is a leading vertical technology platform serving some of the largest and most innovative life insurers. Our platform unifies the fragmented, legacy value chain, enabling carriers to launch products in weeks instead of years. Carriers choose us to scale and operate at unprecedented speed, powered by AI and automation.
Bestow isn't selling policies. We're building the infrastructure that helps an entire industry move faster, reach more people, and deliver on its promise.
Backed by leading investors (Goldman Sachs, Hedosophia, NEA, Valar, 8VC) and trusted by major carriers, Bestow is powered by a team that moves with precision, purpose, and heart. If you want to help reimagine a centuries-old industry with lasting impact, join us.
Bestow offers flexible remote/hybrid work, meaningful benefits, equity, and substantial growth opportunities.

ABOUT THE TEAM
The engineering team is responsible for all technology powering Bestow and the Bestow Platform. We support our employees, consumers, and enterprise partners by delivering reliable, secure, and scalable systems. Our functional teams include product engineering, infrastructure, IT, data and analytics, mar-tech, and program management. We work closely with product management and design to build the right solutions and continuously improve our platform.
This role reports to the Manager of Engineering and is open to remote employees in the U.S. (48 contiguous states only.)
WHAT YOU'LL DO
As a Senior Platform Engineer, you’ll own the implementation of technical projects that improve our platform’s scalability, reliability, and developer experience. You’ll independently execute scoped initiatives, automate infrastructure, and build internal tools that help product teams move faster and safer.
You’ll collaborate closely with other platform engineers and cross‑functional stakeholders, applying your engineering judgment to deliver clean, maintainable solutions. As you grow into the role, you’ll take on ownership of more complex systems and begin influencing architectural choices and team processes.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives on solving problems through automation and wants to level up as a systems thinker.
Projects you might work on:
Develop and Maintain Cloud Infrastructure
-
Implement and evolve infrastructure-as-code using tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
-
Automate and monitor our Kubernetes‑based platform and CI/CD pipelines.
-
Contribute to infrastructure tooling that improves repeatability, safety, and visibility.
Support Developer Productivity
-
Build CLI tools, shared libraries, and scripts to accelerate development workflows.
-
Participate in resolving developer friction by improving build/test/deploy loops.
-
Help define standards for service configuration, secrets management, and app‑level observability.
Contribute to Platform Resilience
-
Implement dashboards, alerts, and runbooks for services owned by platform engineering.
-
Participate in incident response, root cause analysis, and follow‑up improvements.
-
Propose and prototype changes to improve availability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
WHO YOU ARE
-
5+ years of professional experience working with cloud infrastructure (e.g., GCP, AWS, or Azure).
-
You’re familiar with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform or Pulumi and understand CI/CD workflows.
-
You write clean, maintainable code and have experience in at least one scripting or programming language (e.g., Go, Python, Bash, TypeScript).
-
You have hands‑on experience utilizing AI agents (e.g., Claude Code) for engineering tasks, demonstrating an ability to effectively direct agents through clear context, explicit constraints, and deliberate planning.
-
You’ve worked with containerization (e.g., Docker) and orchestration tools like Kubernetes.
-
You understand version control workflows and regularly participate in code reviews.
-
You’re a strong communicator, take ownership of your work, and collaborate well with others.
-
You’re eager to grow and take on more architectural and operational responsibilities.
