Job summary

Structured is seeking a Platform Architect to own the architecture of the Structured AI platform from New York City. You will maintain current systems and scale them as we onboard enterprise customers, guiding design decisions and leading the engineering team.

Responsibilities include restructuring doc processing and CV pipelines, enabling multi-tenant isolation, and setting standards for observability, CI/CD, and incident response. Collaboration with founders on technical roadmaps is required.

Qualifications

• 5+ years building and running production systems, with real ownership of architecture.

• Bonus: GPU workloads, large-scale document or image processing, SOC 2 environments.

Responsibilities

• Own the platform architecture end-to-end: services, data, queues, storage and compute.
• Re-architect document processing and CV pipelines so throughput scales with customers, not headcount.
• Design for multi-tenant isolation, reliability and cost as usage grows by orders of magnitude.
• Set standards for observability, infrastructure as code, CI/CD and incident response.
• Review and mentor across the engineering team, and unblock the hard technical calls.
• Partner with the founders on technical roadmap, security reviews and enterprise requirements.
