About Domify
Domify is an enterprise AI company in the financial services industry, working with some of the largest financial services firms in the country to transform compliance and regulatory oversight with the power of AI. We are building a new-to-industry enterprise AI platform in a highly regulated space in partnership with multiple enterprise clients.
About the role
We are looking for a Platform Engineer to join our small but growing engineering team and help us build out our intrastructure as we go to market. This is an an all-round, hands-on role that straddles various platform and product related workstreams, befitting a fast moving AI startup. The ideal candidate will own our infrastructure end-to-end, whether self-hosted SaaS modules or deployed 'on prem' in our clients' clouds. They will also be comfortable shipping product-grade code when priorities shift. Some client on-site travel may be required as needs arise, in a quasi-FDE role.
What you'll own
- Build and operate Kubernetes (EKS) workloads, plus portable deployments that run inside client environments across cloud providers.
- Own our infrastructure as code in Terraform, building modular, reusable configurations for both our infrastructure and our clients'.
- Manage release delivery with Helm and build CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions covering build, test, scan, and deploy.
- Stand up observability — telemetry, logging, alerting, and on-call-ready dashboards — using AWS-native tooling and EKS log pipelines.
- Run PostgreSQL in production: connection pooling, query and index tuning, backups, replication, and failover.
- Forward-deploy the stack into client infrastructure and contribute to product engineering (Python, React) as startup priorities demand.
What you'll bring
- Production Kubernetes on EKS and deep AWS experience, plus working competence in a second cloud and a track record of cloud-agnostic deployments that run outside your own account.
- Strong command of infrastructure as code and delivery tooling: Terraform, Helm, GitHub Actions, and Docker.
- PostgreSQL operations — load management, tuning, replication, backup and restore — and observability across AWS and Kubernetes.
- Python strong enough to contribute to product code, on top of solid Linux, networking, and security fundamentals.
- A minimum of 5yrs of work experience in enterprise software and deployments.
Location: NYC in-office
We expect the successful candidate to work from Domify's mid-town office NYC 4 days a week. Telecommuting, short NYC stays or relocation are not in consideration at this time.
