ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a senior engineer to help shape and lead the platform that other engineering teams build on top of. Our mission

is to make AI agents and high-throughput backend systems easy for internal teams to adopt, and you'll own significant parts of how

that platform is designed: the reusable libraries, Spring Boot starters, templates, and supporting tooling that the whole company

depends on.

You'll work across two worlds:

Agentic frameworks: the libraries, starters, and orchestration patterns that internal teams use to ship LLM-powered agents

(Python/LangChain/LangGraph on the agent side, Kotlin/Spring Boot on the platform side), plus the supporting frameworks

(evaluations, guardrails) that prove those agents actually work.

Core backend platform: Kotlin services and libraries and the shared building blocks other teams depend on.

This is a high-leverage, builder-and-multiplier role. You'll make foundational design decisions, set the patterns and standards

other engineers follow, and raise the bar for everyone building on the platform. Because the foundations you create sit underneath

many teams' work, understanding how the company fits together, its products, domains, and the teams behind them is central to

doing it well. While AI development experience is a great plus, we are looking for someone with genuine enthusiasm for the field,

someone ready to dive deep into agentic systems and become our go-to expert.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Own the design of shared libraries, Spring Boot starters, and templates while making the architecture, API, and trade-off

decisions that determine how easily internal teams ship on top of them.

Set the patterns and standards for our agentic frameworks, agent orchestration, tool use, memory, and the surrounding plumbing

(message routing, human-in-the-loop workflows, MCP integration), and bring teams along with them.

Mentor and upskill product teams in Python-based AI agent development, including hands-on guidance with the LangChain and

LangGraph frameworks.

Lead the evaluation and guardrail strategy so we can measure agent quality, reliability, and regressions.

Drive technical work across our Kotlin/Spring Boot platform and the client libraries that wrap it.

Build and maintain a clear map of the wider ecosystem (how our systems, domains, and teams connect) and use it to make

foundational decisions that fit real needs across the company.

Drive adoption and multiply other engineers. Mentor teammates, review designs and code, run the docs/examples that turn a good

framework into one that teams actually choose, and feed what you learn back into the platform.

Set the research direction in unfamiliar territory: identify where to invest, prototype the promising approaches, and turn the

winners into production-ready foundations the rest of the org can rely on.

Raise the bar on developer experience, clear APIs, good defaults, useful errors, and documentation people actually read, and

hold the platform to it.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

7+ years of professional software engineering experience, including a track record of building libraries, frameworks, or

platform components that other engineers built on.

Deep experience with Kotlin / the JVM and Spring Boot, and strong instincts for API and library design. You know what makes a

foundation pleasant to build on versus painful.

Demonstrated technical leadership: you set direction, make and justify architectural trade-offs, and lift the engineers around

you, with or without formal authority.

Genuine drive to lead on agentic AI and its surrounding tooling (frameworks, evaluation, guardrails, orchestration), and to

become a go-to expert for the org.

The judgment to drive ambiguity to clarity: to take an open-ended or unfamiliar problem and turn it into a sound, well-scoped

design others can execute.

A systems thinker who owns the bigger picture: you actively understand how the company's products, domains, and teams connect,

and design for the whole, not just the module in front of you.

Excellent communication and a self-sufficient way of gathering context: you do your homework, ask sharp questions of the right

people, and can explain and sell technical directions to both engineers and stakeholders.

Pragmatism about Python: Working knowledge of Python: You don’t need an extensive background in managing large-scale Python

production environments, but you should be comfortable with the language. Since our tooling relies on

Python/LangChain/LangGraph, we look for the ability to ramp up quickly and act as a senior lead across both our Kotlin and

Python stacks

NICE TO HAVE

Strong distributed systems background like messaging/queues (SQS, Redis), gRPC, event-driven architectures, including the

failure modes and operational realities.

Cloud experience (AWS preferred) and infrastructure-as-code.

Experience growing a platform/DevEx practice by establishing standards, golden paths, and adoption across multiple teams.

Contributions to or maintenance of open-source libraries or frameworks.

Hands-on experience with LLMs, LangChain/LangGraph, or other agent frameworks.

Experience defining evaluation / experiment-tracking / observability strategy for ML or agent systems (e.g. Langfuse, MLflow,

or similar).

Senior Platform Engineer

Polar•Europe

WHY POLAR? It's never been easier to build, ship and scale software. But it's never been harder to monetize it. Modern startups look fundamentally different than prior generations: * Smaller teams * Exponential revenue growth relative to headcount * Higher variability in costs (LLMs) requiring more frequent pricing iterations * Laser focused on product development and distribution * Delegating and automating everything that is boilerplate – be it in their codebase or business operations.

Offering built-in pricing and cost insights, simulations and optimizations while simultaneously handling international compliance, tax management, fraud prevention and more. That's Polar. We're building the next standard for applied AI startups. Join our small, talented and engineering-led team across Europe as we build the infrastructure powering the next generation of software companies. We focus on shipping at high velocity to serve startup founders scale their businesses. Everything else is secondary. ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES: WHAT YOU WILL DO We’re hiring a Senior Platform Engineer to architect and evolve the Polar platform - ensuring the system remains fast, resilient and operationally sound as we scale. Polar operates as a merchant of record, meaning our platform sits directly in the critical path of global payments, billing infrastructure and financial workflows. Reliability, uptime and correctness are essential - while still maintaining the ability to move quickly and ship product improvements. You’ll work across the platform and infrastructure layers that power Polar - from core infrastructure and observability to deployment safety, internal tooling and reliability engineering. In close partnership with the team, you’ll ensure the system scales to handle increasing traffic, architectural complexity and regulatory demands without compromising stability, performance or developer velocity. This role is ideal for someone who treats reliability as a product requirement and scalability as an architectural discipline, combining deep systems engineering experience with a passion for building reliable, scalable platforms and empowering engineering teams through strong abstractions and automation. While this role focuses primarily on the foundational layers of our platform, we value engineers who are comfortable moving across the stack when needed to ship quickly and maintain momentum. You’ll work with the team to: * Ensure Platform Reliability & Uptime: Design and evolve systems that maintain high availability, predictable performance and operational stability. Drive improvements in uptime, resilience and operational discipline as the system scales. * Engineer for Scale & Performance: Strengthen how our distributed services behave under load. Identify bottlenecks, optimize critical paths and design systems that scale with growing traffic and complexity. * Advance SRE & DevOps Practices: Embed reliability engineering practices across the platform - defining SLOs and SLIs, improving incident response, reducing operational toil and making production behavior measurable and actionable. * Evolve Cloud & Infrastructure Systems: Continuously evolve Polar’s infrastructure baseline and determine when the current stack needs to evolve. Improve infrastructure-as-code, environment management and operational safety mechanisms. * Strengthen Deployment & Operational Safety: Refine CI/CD systems, rollout strategies and rollback mechanisms to ensure changes are safe, observable, reversible and fast to deploy. * Improve Observability & Debuggability: Advance logging, metrics and tracing standards so engineers can quickly understand, debug and resolve issues in production. * Collaborate across Engineering, Risk & Legal: Work closely with product and infrastructure engineers, as well as risk and legal stakeholders, to translate evolving regulatory requirements into clear technical abstractions while maintaining long-term platform reliability and health. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR Systems Thinking & Operating Mindset * Deep systems thinking: You anticipate failure modes, design for idempotency and consistency, and think carefully about how distributed systems behave in production. * Security- and compliance-aware engineering mindset: You build with auditability, principled access control and regulatory constraints as first-order design considerations. * End-to-end ownership: You are comfortable owning features from infrastructure and backend systems all the way to shipping functionality that powers the product. While this role focuses on platform layers, we value engineers willing to work across the stack when needed. * Strong product judgement: You know when to move fast while ensuring that correctness, auditability and long-term system integrity take precedence. * High-ownership collaboration: You thrive in small teams, collaborating closely across engineering to evolve the platform architecture and take shared responsibility for the long-term health of the system. Technical Skills * Strong backend expertise - you design clear, durable APIs and build systems that are resilient under real-world load and edge cases. * Highly proficient in SQL and data modeling - you reason rigorously about long-term data correctness, performance and reliability across large datasets. * Strong production debugging and observability instincts with an ability to trace complex issues across services and understand how to prevent them in the future. * Experience building or operating distributed systems with strong reliability and operational requirements. Experience * 5-8+ years of engineering experience, building and scaling customer-facing SaaS or fintech products in a high-growth environment. * Experience in payments and billing infrastructure - subscription lifecycles, transaction orchestration, refunds/disputes, payouts and financial state management. Nice-to-have: Open source contributions or side projects/apps to showcase. WHAT WE OFFER * Meaningful ownership: Small team & large surface area. You’ll directly influence how the company and platform scale. * Product-driven culture: We build to empower the next generation of software companies - and operate with the same builder mindset internally. * Competitive compensation: Salary and equity aligned with the impact of the role. * Exceptional team: Work with highly talented team members distributed across Europe. * Remote-first environment: Work from anywhere in Europe, with a home office setup budget available. * Annual team offsites: As the team is spread across Europe, we gather in person at least once a year to collaborate, plan, and spend time. * Health Benefits: Comprehensive health coverage to support you and your family. * Parental leave: Paid parental leave aligned with the standards and regulations of your local jurisdiction.
