Your role in the team
- Foundation is the team that makes every product team at Knowunity faster, we own the core backend in Go, the Flutter mobile foundation, infrastructure, and the agentic/AI setup that's central to how we ship.
- We're hiring a Senior Platform Engineer to help define and evolve the systems everything else is built on, and to operate where product engineering and AI tooling meet.
- You'll work on the systems the rest of engineering depends on, and help shape how AI fits into our day-to-day work.
- Core backend platform: Design, build, and maintain Go services and the patterns other teams depend on.
- Mobile foundation: Own foundational parts of the Flutter app, including shared components, performance, and build tooling.
- Developer experience: Drive end-to-end DevEx, CI/CD, local dev, internal frameworks, faster feedback loops.
- Infrastructure & operations: Strengthen reliability and operational maturity across observability, and deploys.
- Agentic & AI infrastructure: Build out how AI tools integrate into our codebase, our workflows, and eventually our product.
