AI Platform Engineer
AI Platform Engineer is required to join a new Platform Engineering team as part of a major technology and AI transformation at one of the largest and most prestigious U.S. and global law firms. You’ll help build the internal developer platform, self-service tooling, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, cloud automation, and observability capabilities that will support both traditional applications and modern AI workloads, involving reliability standards to AI workloads, while recognising where AI demands different primitives such as evaluations, non-deterministic failure handling, token economics, and confidentiality controls.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
