Platform Engineer

Mobilution It Systems; Bengaluru; Hybrid; INR 2,500,000 - 4,800,000; Full time

Job summary

Mobilution It Systems in Bengaluru, India seeks a senior platform engineer embedded within a product engineering group to drive reliability and scale. You will participate in daily standups and design reviews while patching OS, runtimes, and base images, and leading incident responses with SRE.

You will build deep product context to guide platform decisions, review architecture, and ensure secure, auditable deployments across distributed systems.

Qualifications

• 5-8 years in software engineering, DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering with substantial time writing and debugging production code.
• Embedded directly inside product engineering teams, not through ticket queues; you know how to be a team member.
• Ability to diagnose and fix production issues end-to-end across application & infrastructure.
• Proficient in Go and Python; able to read and patch Node.js/TypeScript, Dart/Flutter, Java, .NET, C++, and C code.
• SQL expertise for performance tuning and migration pipelines.
• Experience with AWS/GCP, EKS, Kubernetes, Helm & related cloud-native technologies for deploying and operating production workloads at scale.

Responsibilities

• Embed with an assigned Product Engineering group; participate daily in standups, design reviews, backlog grooming, sprint planning, and release readiness calls.
• Review PRs and architecture proposals through a lens of reliability, scalability, and security for 24/7 operations.
• Trace data flows and troubleshoot production issues end-to-end across app and infra boundaries; diagnose and fix problems.
• Guide teams through migration onto golden paths and the internal developer platform to remove deployment friction.
• Own the monthly patching cycle for the assigned group: OS, runtime, container base image, and dependency patches.
• Run scheduled performance, load, and soak testing; triage findings and implement remediation with core engineering as needed.
• Join major incidents with SRE; lead root-cause analysis and feed platform gaps back into the roadmap.
• Champion developer success through workshops, pair programming, and escalation paths when the platform doesn't fit a use case.

Job Qualifications & Skills

Education: Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field

Experience: 5-8 Years with meaningful time writing production code, hands-on debugging, and operating systems at scale

Job Description

Embed with an assigned Product Engineering group as a functional team member; participate daily in standups, design reviews, backlog grooming, sprint planning, and release readiness calls.

Build and maintain deep product knowledgewhat the service does, who uses it, how pieces fit togetherso platform guidance is grounded in product context, not generic best practice.

Review pull requests and architecture proposals in the flow of work, using the lens: 'Will this run reliably, scale safely, and remain secure under 24/7 SRE operations?'

Trace data flows and troubleshoot production issues end-to-end across application and infrastructure boundaries; diagnose and fix problems without escalating to core product developers.

Guide teams through migration onto golden paths and the internal developer platform; identify and remove friction that prevents self-service deployments.

Bring services to operational maturity before handoff to SREestablish monitoring, alerting, runbooks, failover strategies, and partner with SRE on validation.

Conduct hands-on code review and patch application code for security remediation, version upgrades, and performance optimization.

Own the monthly patching cycle for the assigned group: OS, runtime, container base image, and dependency patches applied, functionally tested, and regression-verified.

Run scheduled performance, load, and soak testing against reference workloads; triage findings and implement remediationpull core engineering only where product changes are required.

Join major incidents alongside SRE; lead root-cause analysis; feed platform and architecture gaps back into the roadmap.

Champion developer success: workshops, pair programming, and an escalation path when the platform doesn't fit a use case.

Partner with Release Engineering on deployment strategies; with SRE on operational standards; and with InfoSec on security controls built into the workflow.
