Job summary

Job Juncture seeks an AI Platform Engineer to build a greenfield platform that governs how AI agents interact with enterprise systems. This role focuses on a core control plane, policy enforcement, and robust audit logging across agents and integrations.

Ideal candidate has 5+ years in backend/platform engineering, hands-on with AWS, Kubernetes, and identity workflows, and enjoys shaping architecture from day one. Remote-first with strong collaboration across teams.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in backend/platform/infrastructure engineering on production systems.

Responsibilities

• Build the core control-plane infrastructure that enforces separation between propose, decide, and execute actions across all agents.
• Implement business-rule and guardrail engines, risk-model registries, and configuration-governance workflows, including dual approval, versioning, and rollback.
• Build access-control and policy-enforcement layers (OPA/Cedar-style policy engines) scoped beyond native system-of-record roles.
• Implement immutable, hash-chained audit logging that satisfies enterprise compliance evidence requirements.
• Build the governed connector framework, including staging, retry, and circuit-breaker logic, that mediates all writes back to systems of record.
• Stand up identity and workload-identity infrastructure (SPIFFE, Entra ID federation, or similar) for agent registration and authentication.
• Implement observability instrumentation (OpenTelemetry, tracing/spans) so every governed action is traceable end to end.
• Build and maintain the synthetic test data environment and scenario/regression harness used to validate the platform independent of production systems.
• Collaborate with the Solutions Architect to keep the platform's integration contract stable and backward-compatible as new agents onboard.
• Support infrastructure provisioning and deployment automation, including containerization and CI/CD.
