gc-ai - Member of Technical Staff, Platform Engineering
Requirements
• Experience acting as a technical lead on a team or vertical; strong communication skills. • Experience with platform engineering, internal developer platforms (IDPs), or developer tooling. • Prior work in regulated or enterprise-focused environments. • Familiarity with SRE practices, incident response, or on-call workflows. • GC AI is distributed, and engineering is our most distributed team. We hire engineers across the US and Canada. Wherever you're based, expect up to 10% travel for coworking sessions and team off-sites across our hub cities. • Because we work across time zones, we prioritize engineers who communicate clearly in writing and operate well asynchronously. Strong written communication is a core part of how we build. • We’re building something new in a once-in-a-generation shift in technology and the legal industry, so we move at a relentless pace. We expect urgency, ownership, and good judgment even when things aren’t perfectly clear. If you need structure and consensus to do your best work, this isn’t the right place for you. If you thrive in ambiguity and growth, work with intensity, and want real responsibility, keep reading. We’re excited to meet you. • How We Work Together • GC AI is a distributed company with team members across North America, and soon Europe. We believe that because our business is AI, human connection matters more, not less. We invest in bringing people together through our hub model: regular coworking sessions, customer dinners, team and company offsites. If you’re in a location without an office, expect up to 10% travel (and more for customer-facing roles). • Team members in the San Francisco Bay Area and Provo, UT (within 50 miles of the office) work together on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. As we grow, we plan to establish permanent offices in more hub cities, and we will look to our team members to help build that in-person culture. We currently hire across the United States and Canada. • Equal Opportunity Employment
Responsibilities
• Own and evolve our core platform infrastructure—networking, compute, storage, and deployment pipelines—on Google Cloud Platform. • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that enable fast, safe, and reliable deployments. • Define and enforce infrastructure as code (IaC) practices using Terraform, Pulumi, or similar. • Unify logging and observability across services—making the platform easier to understand, debug, and operate. • Collaborate with fellow Engineers to maintain clean network boundaries, environment isolation, and operational hygiene. • Drive developer productivity by improving tooling, reducing toil, and building internal platform capabilities. • Contribute to engineering culture and technical direction—helping the team operate at a higher level. • Deep in GCP. You have production experience with IAM, service accounts, project isolation, and networking on Google Cloud Platform. You've operated infrastructure that real customers depend on. • Infrastructure as code is your default. You've built and maintained IaC with Terraform, Pulumi, or similar. You treat infrastructure drift like a bug. • A strong backend engineer. You write production-quality code, TypeScript preferred, and you're comfortable reasoning across the stack when platform decisions touch application behavior. • Observability-minded. You've built or maintained logging and observability pipelines at scale. You know what it takes to make a system legible to the people who run it. • Pragmatic about risk. You reason about operational risk clearly, make tradeoffs deliberately, and ship infrastructure improvements without waiting for perfect conditions. • An owner, not a renter. You fix problems without being asked, follow through on every detail, and communicate proactively when circumstances change.
