The Senior Platform Engineer will collaborate with teams to design and implement robust platform solutions, manage Kubernetes clusters, automate infrastructure, and ensure reliability in cloud environments, all while supporting critical systems.
As a Senior Platform Engineer at BSC Analytics, you'll be part of a high-performing squad of four to five engineers tackling complex platform challenges for large-scale, highly regulated enterprises. Our work spans cloud migrations, modernization programs, Kubernetes platforms, and DevOps transformations across both Azure and AWS — which means no two engagements look exactly alike. If you thrive on learning, moving fast, and solving real-world problems across a mix of environments — both modern and legacy — this role is for you. Every week brings new opportunities to sharpen your technical skills, collaborate with top engineers, and grow your reputation as a trusted expert. You'll work on platforms that power mission-critical systems — all within a flexible, remote-first culture that values deep expertise, autonomy, and continuous learning.

- Build automated infrastructure with Terraform and other IaC tools
- Lead cloud migration and modernization efforts, including re-platforming legacy workloads (Java, .NET, ETL, databases) to modern cloud-native services
- Automate scaling, deployment, and management of containerized applications
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and fine-tune system performance to ensure reliability, cost-effectiveness, and resilience
- Implement proactive monitoring solutions that detect and prevent outages
- Translate complex client requirements into scalable, automated solutions
- Contribute to team knowledge-sharing, peer reviews, runbooks, and process improvement efforts
- Support and maintain secure, compliant, and resilient infrastructure for critical systems
