Hiring: Platform Software Engineer II Company: Braze Location: New York, NY Job Posted Time: 2026-09-10 10:37:28 Employment Type: Remote Target Skills & Keywords : CI/CD, GitHub, Kafka, Kubernetes, MongoDB, Rails, Redis, Terraform About the job Experience: •5+  years of experience building developer tooling, CI/CD pipelines, or similar software. This is not an entry-level or new-grad role Required Skills: •Turn Braze's infrastructure primitives, like deployment, provisioning, and testing, into simple, self-serve paths so engineers can build, test, and ship without stitching multiple systems together themselves •Build the frameworks and guardrails that let engineering teams deploy internally-built AI agents safely, including governance that controls what an agent can access and do •Partner with Braze's engineering teams to define infrastructure-as-a-service primitives, build monitoring and alerting that catches issues early, and help Braze meet its enterprise-grade SLAs •Provide the opinionated abstractions, tooling, and guardrails that let engineering teams use platform primitives safely, and keep improving the observability and everyday ergonomics of the tools they depend on •This team doesn't run a formal on-call rotation yet. As one stands up, you'll help shape it, backed by Braze's dedicated platform support team who already absorb most day-two firefighting Qualifications: •This is a software and developer tooling role, not a systems administration role. If most of your experience is deep infrastructure work, heavy Terraform ownership, or cluster administration, with less time spent building the software layer on top, this probably isn't the right next step for you. •Comfortable with Kubernetes as something you build on top of and deploy to, not something you spend your day administering •You care more about good service and software design than which language you're writing in. A growing share of code today gets written by AI tooling, so design judgment matters more than raw output •You've built or explored developer platform integrations such as GitHub Apps, internal CLIs, or MCP (Model Context Protocol), and you use AI tools in your own workflow with a clear point of view on where they help and where they don't •You think about systems: interfaces, boundaries, edge cases, and failure modes •You collaborate and document well across global, remote teams, and you'd rather fix something broken than walk past it Compensation: •Competitive benefits and rewards package •Competitive compensation that may include equity Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
