Platform Engineer

At Itineris, we're building the next generation of AI and Insights capabilities that power our products and customers.

From AI-powered agents that assist business users, to predictive and analytical services that generate actionable insights, we are investing in platforms that can be reused across products, customers, and use cases.

What you will work on …

We are looking for a Software Engineer who will take technical ownership of these platforms and help shape their future. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys both designing systems and building them.

You will work on strategic initiatives, helping define architecture, implement foundational capabilities, validate technical approaches, and support delivery teams as these platforms grow and mature. The underlying platforms emphasize reusable architectures, shared capabilities, standardized models, governance, and extensibility.

As our Software Engineer, you…

Own the technical direction

• Define and evolve platform architectures.
• Design domain models, service boundaries, APIs, and integration patterns.
• Define event schemas and contracts for ingress and egress event flows.
• Design the anti-corruption layer that isolates core domain models from upstream system representations.
• Drive architectural consistency across solutions.

• Design and implement core services and platform components using Azure Functions and Azure Container Apps/AKS.
• Build the core insights layer that produces derived analytics and produces agentic outcomes.
• Own production readiness for event-driven services: dead-lettering, retry/backoff, idempotency, and replay
• Lead technical spikes, proofs of concept, and architectural validations.
• Contribute production-ready code where it matters most.
• Support troubleshooting of complex technical problems.

• Design solutions that support multiple customers and use cases.
• Help establish reusable building blocks that accelerate future development.
• Identify opportunities for platform reuse and simplification.
• Ensure new capabilities can be added without significant architectural redesign.

• Guide project teams during rollout.
• Help translate platform capabilities into customer-facing solutions.

• Coach and mentor engineers.
• Promote engineering best practices.
• Help create a strong culture of ownership and technical excellence.

What we're looking for...

We’re looking for someone that can define event-driven, microservices architectures on Azure and aid in implementing the first iteration. You think in reusable capabilities, rather than one-off solutions and can challenge design assumptions through experimentation.
