What do you need for this opportunity

Must have skills required:

Cool AI is Looking for:

As a Platform Engineer, you'll treat infrastructure as an internal product—building software, APIs, automation, and self-service tools that help engineers deploy and operate systems reliably.

You'll bridge Software Engineering and DevOps, with a strong focus on infrastructure automation, observability, Kubernetes, and AI-driven automation.

Ideal Profile

• Someone who combines strong coding + strong infrastructure/DevOps knowledge. This is not a pure DevOps or pure Software Engineering role—the key is the ability to build software and platforms for infrastructure teams.
  
  

Key Responsibilities

• Build self-service infrastructure platforms and APIs around Ansible, Terraform, and Helm.
• Develop AI agents for infrastructure monitoring, root-cause analysis, configuration drift, and automated remediation.
• Build and improve observability and alerting across bare-metal and containerized infrastructure.
• Develop automation and internal tools that reduce manual operational work.
• Partner with DevOps and Engineering teams to identify gaps and proactively build solutions.
• Architect and manage on-premise Kubernetes environments using Docker and Helm.
• Create reusable monitoring golden paths for logs, metrics, and tracing.
  
  

Must-Have Skills

• Strong software development/coding skills in Go, Python, or Java.
• Strong DevOps/Infrastructure experience with Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, and Helm.
• Experience building APIs, CLIs, internal tools, or automation frameworks.
• Strong observability experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or similar.
• Experience with AWS/GCP or on-premise infrastructure.
• Strong understanding of Docker and Kubernetes.
• Strong ownership and self-starter mindset- able to identify problems and build solutions without waiting for tickets.
  
  

Good to Have

• AI/LLM or AI-agent experience.
• Bare-metal/on-premise infrastructure experience.
• Custom Ansible modules or Terraform providers.
• Experience integrating LLMs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini.
