Job Description Job Description Staff / Principal Platform Engineer Location: New York City Hybrid Department: AI Platform & Infrastructure Team Reports to: Vangie Shue - Principal Engineering Manager About AppGate AppGate secures and protects an organization's most valuable assets with its high performance Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution and Cyber Advisory Services. AppGate ZTNA is the only direct-routed Zero Trust solution built for peak performance, superior protection and seamless interoperability. AppGate Cyber Advisory Services harden your security posture and ensure business continuity. AppGate safeguards Fortune 500 enterprises and government agencies worldwide. Learn more at About the Role As we expand our platform, we are standing up a new AI Platform & Infrastructure team: the engine room of AppGate's AI strategy. This team owns the infrastructure layer that every next-generation security capability is built on, from network observability to AI-driven threat detection and the secure operation of emerging Agentic AI systems. We're looking for a Staff or Principal Platform Engineer to build and operate the foundational platform behind AppGate's AI products. You combine deep DevOps and cloud infrastructure expertise with hands-on experience operationalizing AI/ML systems, and you treat observability as a first-class engineering discipline. This is a rare opportunity to join a small, private, high-impact company where your work directly shapes the architecture, reliability and core platform that defines the future of security. You'll own the platform spanning APIs, cloud and self-managed solutions and AI/ML infrastructure, and you'll make it fast, reliable and observable at scale. This is a high-leverage, hands-on role for a senior engineer who sets technical direction and still ships. Key Responsibilities Build the Platform: design, build and operate the cloud infrastructure, services and pipelines that AppGate's AI and cloud products run on. Strong experience with self-managed technologies (kafka, elasticsearch) and Kubernetes are a must. Infrastructure as Code & Deployment Orchestration: Terraform and Helm for cloud provisioning, service deployment and configuration management. Implement Observability: instrument APIs, cloud services and AI/ML infrastructure with metrics, logging, tracing and alerting, and define SLOs and operational health metrics that teams trust. Data Platform: real-time and batch data ingestion pipelines, feature stores and data quality. Integrations: third-party connectors, APIs and platform integrations. Operationalize AI/ML: build model serving and inference pipelines, experiment tracking and the MLOps tooling for deployment, versioning, drift monitoring and lifecycle management. Engineer for reliability & automation: apply SRE practices to reduce toil, improve resilience and keep latency and uptime within target across the platform. Automate everything - deliver infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD and self-service tooling so product teams ship safely and quickly. Set technical direction: define platform standards, architecture and best practices, and raise the engineering bar through design reviews and mentorship. Collaborate cross-functionally: partner with data scientists, product teams and leadership to align platform investment with AppGate's strategic vision. Required Qualifications Experience: extensive platform, infrastructure or SRE engineering experience, with a track record of operating production systems at scale. Staff-level candidates typically bring 8+ years and Principal-level candidates 12+ years, though we hire on demonstrated impact. DevOps depth: strong command of infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or equivalent), CI/CD, containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud platforms (AWS). Observability expertise: hands-on experience implementing observability across APIs, cloud services and distributed systems using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, the ELK stack or comparable, including SLO and error-budget practice. Data platform skills: familiarity with real-time and batch ingestion pipelines, feature stores and data quality at production scale. Engineering craft: fluency in a primary backend language (Python, Go or similar) and a strong bias toward automation, testing and reliable, maintainable systems. Leadership: a record of setting technical direction, leading complex initiatives across teams, mentoring senior engineers, while still being very hands-on. Mindset: pragmatic, rigorous and ownership-driven. You thrive in a small, fast-moving environment and enjoy building foundations others depend on. Preferred Qualifications AI/ML infrastructure: experience building or operating model serving, inference pipelines and MLOps tooling such as MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker or equivalent, including model deployment, versioning and drift monitoring. Networking & Zero Trust fundamentals: working knowledge of the network and routing layer beneath modern access solutions - TCP/IP, TLS, tunneling/overlay networks, packet routing and filtering, DNS and firewalling - and familiarity with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) or adjacent domains (VPN, SDP, SASE, software-defined networking). You can reason about traffic paths, latency and throughput end-to-end, and instrument the network as a first-class observability signal. Compensation Staff: 185k-225k base Principal: 215k-270k base We offer performance bonuses and considerable equity.
