Staff Engineer, Platform (R6019)

We are looking for a Staff Platform Engineer to contribute to the Platform solutions and infrastructure that power Forge, the AI Factory. These components provide distributed runtime capabilities that enable teams to reliably orchestrate workloads, process data, and underpin the workflows of building an AI Pilot. 

The Forge Platform Engineering team provides Kubernetes-native capabilities that support autonomy development, simulation, testing, training, evaluation, deployment, and operational workflows across commercial cloud, on-premises infrastructure, sovereign deployments, edge environments, and fully air-gapped systems. 

This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will define platform architecture, implement production software, establish reusable operational patterns, and partner with teams across autonomy, ML, simulation, test, infrastructure, and product engineering. Success requires balancing developer productivity, reliability, extensibility, performance, portability, and long-term operational maintainability.
