Staff Platform Engineer
Gemini · New York, New York; Miami, Florida; Remote (USA)
About this role
**Staff Platform Engineer** **About the Company** Gemini is a global crypto and Web3 platform founded in 2014 by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. Gemini offers trusted crypto products and services to individuals and institutions in 70+ countries, with a mission to unlock the next era of financial, creative, and personal freedom. **The Department: Platform** The Platform organization enables Gemini to scale effectively and empowers engineering teams to focus on building innovative financial products and experiences. Platform builds a scalable, secure foundation for engineering teams to develop, deploy, validate, and operate services in production—improving reliability, reducing repetitive operational work, and increasing system efficiency. **The Role** As a **Staff Platform Engineer**, you’ll provide technical leadership for the software and infrastructure that power Gemini’s internal engineering platform. You’ll build self-service systems, developer tools, and automation to improve how teams create, deploy, scale, observe, and operate services. You’ll shape platform strategy across cloud, networking, compute, storage, infrastructure automation, CI/CD, and the systems required to run highly available services in production—partnering with engineering, security, data, and product leaders to turn operational needs into reliable platform products. **What success looks like** - Engineers can safely self-serve common workflows through documented, well-supported platform products. - Platform capabilities are adopted because they reduce complexity and improve outcomes. - Reliability, deployment safety, developer experience, and infrastructure efficiency improve measurably over time. - Operational load grows more slowly than the number and scale of services supported. - Platform engineers stay close to production while spending most of their time on durable software and systems improvements. **Responsibilities** - Set technical direction for platform capabilities and contribute to a long-term plan for cloud, networking, infrastructure, delivery, and reliability engineering. - Lead architecture recommendations and technical engagements across the software development lifecycle. - Design, build, and maintain platform services, APIs, CLIs, controllers, workflows, and automation (e.g., Go, TypeScript, Python, or similar). - Build self-service capabilities for provisioning environments, deploying services, managing infrastructure, and responding to operational conditions safely. - Experience with build tooling such as Bazel or Buck2. - Create and evolve standard workflows for service development and delivery (templates, libraries, policy-as-code, reusable building blocks). - Design and improve cloud, compute, storage, identity, and infrastructure building blocks. - Design and operate core network infrastructure across public clouds and regions (routing, connectivity, traffic management, security controls). - Operate and improve compute/container/networking/cloud infrastructure supporting critical services and new workloads. - Improve systems and workflows for provisioning, connecting services, delivering changes, and recovering from failures. - Define and use SLOs, error budgets, and production-readiness standards to make reliability and launch decisions explicit and measurable. - Improve observability, alerting, capacity planning, performance, and failure handling; design systems that degrade gracefully and recover automatically where safe. - Lea
