About this role

This senior platform engineering role develops an internal operations platform as a product for the financial-institution SaaS asset-management platform 4RAP. As the number of adopting companies grows, company-specific version management, operational work and incident response are becoming difficult to scale. The role redesigns these operations through engineering so that operational effort does not increase linearly as more companies are added.

Responsibilities include designing and developing an internal platform that enables development and operations members to perform operational tasks autonomously and safely. The platform may include management interfaces, CLI tools, ChatOps, CI and AI agents. The role also organizes operational knowledge so that it can be used by AI through context engineering.

The engineer works with the Backend team, SRE and business teams to define operational requirements and translate them into working systems. Participation in the Backend team’s on-call and operational activities is part of the role, with the purpose of gaining operational knowledge and identifying issues in the field.

The position belongs to the OpeRE team, an Operational SRE team currently consisting of two members. The broader engineering organization has more than 50 members. Because OpeRE is newly established, the role includes contributing to team building.

Tools and technologies include TypeScript, Python and Go for tool development; Argo CD and Argo Workflows for deployment and batch execution; GitLab and GitHub for version management; Slack, Confluence, Jira and Zoom for communication; Figma for design; and AWS, DataDog and Terraform for infrastructure. Code review and testing are required. Depending on the team, the role may also involve developing management interfaces with TypeScript and Next.js.

The position is generally fully remote. Optional office activities are available for交流, and the initial work location is in Ichibancho, Chiyoda, Tokyo, with telework available from an employee’s home or an equivalent location.
