Job Overview
About the Role
Together AI is hiring a Staff Platform Engineer to join the Product Foundations engineering organization and drive its service infrastructure strategy.
Product Foundations builds and operates Together’s mission-critical product platforms that support all cloud products, including API Platform (non-Inference), web UI Platform, Billing, and customer-facing IAM. These services sit on the critical path for customers and internal systems.
This is a hands-on Staff role focused on evolving Product Foundations’ core infrastructure strategy from the inside: understanding service team needs, turning repeated infrastructure problems into reusable patterns, and coordinating across platform owners so Product Foundations services are reliable, repeatable, and built on the right company-wide foundations.
Responsibilities
- Own the technical direction for service infrastructure within Product Foundations, including Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, CDNs, ALBs, DNS, IAM, service networking, and related operational patterns.
- Up-level existing Product Foundations services by improving reliability, operability, deployment safety, infrastructure consistency, and production readiness.
- Partner deeply with API Platform and UI Platform on networking, DNS, CDN, load balancing, delivery, and gateway patterns for critical customer-facing interfaces.
- Work closely with Infrastructure, Networking, and Security teams to bring company-wide platform standards into Product Foundations and contribute PF requirements back into shared frameworks.
- Help drive cross-company infrastructure initiatives that Product Foundations depend on or help maintain, including Terraform CI/CD, Kubernetes networking, zero-trust service communication, policy-as-code, and cross-DC/provider networking.
- Build and evolve reusable service infrastructure primitives, including Helm charts, Terraform modules, GitHub Actions/GitOps workflows, service scaffolding, runbooks, and documentation.
- Establish durable technical standards through design docs, architecture reviews, mentorship, and hands-on implementation that help Together scale services across teams, regions, and cloud environments.
Requirements
- 7+ years of professional experience in platform engineering, service infrastructure, SRE, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, or related roles.
- Deep production experience with Kubernetes, including EKS, Helm, ArgoCD/Argo Rollouts, ingress, autoscaling, secrets, service identity, networking, and progressive delivery.
- Strong Terraform experience, including module design, infrastructure CI/CD, policy enforcement, production applies, and safe self-service workflows.
- Experience operating networking and edge infrastructure such as CDNs, ALBs/NLBs, DNS, TLS, ingress/egress controls, and traffic management.
- Proficiency in one or more programming languages used for infrastructure tooling and automation, such as Go, Python, TypeScript, or similar.
- AWS exp
