Senzing (entity resolution SDK) | Platform Engineer | Remote (USA) | Full-time Senzing builds enterprise entity-resolution SDK technology — an embeddable library that runs entirely inside customer infrastructure with zero data exfiltration. We're hiring a platform engineer to own the AWS infrastructure behind Placekey (our location-data subsidiary), a production API service running at scale. Day one, this is a cloud/platform role: you'd own the operational health of Placekey's stack, close out post-migration hardening, and have real input on where the infrastructure goes next. Over time the role grows to include internal IT and systems work (Active Directory, endpoint/laptop provisioning, Tailscale, security) — so we're looking for someone who's happy owning things end to end, not only the glamorous layer. Stack: EKS Fargate, Aurora PostgreSQL, S3, Lambda, Cloudflare, API gateway (Kong/AWS), Terraform, Grafana/CloudWatch/Datadog. Apps are Scala and Rust. Looking for: 5+ years platform/cloud infra, production Kubernetes (EKS ideal), managed Postgres (backup/recovery/tuning), IaC, solid networking, strong Python/Bash. You don't need to be an expert on the IT/systems side today — but you should want to grow into it. Remote anywhere in the USA. Competitive salary, full health/dental/vision, 401(k) match, flexible PTO. To apply: email enghiring@senzing.com with your resume and a short note — tell us about a challenging production system you've owned end to end, including an incident where your monitoring missed something and what you changed afterward.
