Full description
- We’re seeking a Platform Engineer to design and build the control plane that powers Hyperbolic’s GPU marketplace
- This is the “aggregator brain” that transforms raw compute from hundreds of diverse vendors into a unified, programmable product
- You’ll architect the abstractions, policies, and golden paths that enable thousands of developers to seamlessly access GPU resources across our global network without thinking about the underlying complexity
- In this role, you’ll design the tenant management system, build resource lifecycle APIs, implement identity and access control, establish billing and quota frameworks, and create the multi-cloud abstractions that make our platform feel native regardless of the underlying provider
- You’ll work closely with our engineering team to craft elegant solutions for complex distributed systems challenges, ensuring our control plane is robust, scalable, and developer-friendly
- This is a foundational engineering role where your architectural decisions will shape how AI developers worldwide interact with compute resources
- Experience with identity, access management, and policy systems including SSO integration, organizational structures, role-based access control (RBAC), and fine-grained permissions
- Experience building compliance hooks, policy enforcement, and governance frameworks for cloud platforms
- Excellent communication skills with ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and business teams
- Expert in platform engineering with experience designing and building control planes for cloud platforms, developer platforms, or infrastructure services
- Deep understanding of multi-tenancy architecture including tenant isolation, project hierarchies, resource quotas, and billing integration
- Proven ability to design “golden paths” and developer experiences that abstract complexity while maintaining power and flexibility
- Strong background in API design and development, including RESTful APIs, resource lifecycles, versioning strategies, and multi-cloud abstractions
- Strong systems thinking with ability to design scalable, maintainable architectures for distributed control planes
- Track record of building production-grade platform services used by developers or enterprises
- Experience building cloud platforms, PaaS, or infrastructure-as-a-service products
- Knowledge of Kubernetes control plane architecture, custom resource definitions (CRDs), and operator patterns
- Familiarity with billing systems, metering, usage tracking, and quota enforcement mechanisms
- Experience with service mesh, API gateway technologies, and rate limiting strategies
- Background in security, compliance frameworks (SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA), and audit logging
- Contributions to open-source platform or infrastructure projects
- Experience at companies like AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, or fast-growing infrastructure startups
