  • Establish golden paths for AI development and deployment through templates, reference architectures, and developer experience workflows.
  • Embed AI capabilities into the software development lifecycle to improve how engineers plan, code, test, build, deploy, observe, and remediate.
  • Partner with product and engineering leaders to drive platform adoption, measure outcomes, and iterate based on feedback and business impact.
  • Define and deliver the AI and SDLC platform strategy, roadmap, operating model, intake, prioritization, lifecycle management, and deprecation policies.

  • Own platform reliability and operability, including SLOs, on-call readiness, runbooks, incident response, and post-incident improvement.
  • Implement observability for AI systems, including telemetry, tracing, and monitoring for performance, drift, latency, safety signals, and cost.
  • Drive automation and standardization across infrastructure provisioning and delivery pipelines using infrastructure as code, CI/CD, environment management, and policy-as-code guardrails.
  • Hire, develop, and retain 2-3 teams of AI and DevEx platform engineers while setting technical standards and mentoring platform practices.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of engineering experience, including 5+ years leading teams delivering platform or infrastructure products used by other engineering teams at scale.
  • Proven experience building and operating internal platforms with multi-tenant services, reliability targets, and measurable adoption outcomes.
  • Experience delivering production AI platform capabilities such as inference serving, orchestration, evaluation, and model observability.
  • Strong technical depth in cloud and distributed systems, including AWS, Kubernetes, networking, and service reliability practices.
  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure automation and delivery, including infrastructure as code, CI/CD systems, and policy-as-code approaches.
  • Fluency in observability and operational excellence, including metrics, logging, tracing, capacity planning, and incident management.
  • Strong cross-functional leadership skills with the ability to partner with Security, Risk, Legal, Compliance, and Data on governance guardrails.
  • Experience shaping vendor strategy, evaluating platforms and model providers, and balancing speed, risk, cost, and flexibility through build-versus-buy decisions.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to align executives and engineering teams on strategy and execution.
  • Experience in regulated industries such as financial services or healthcare is preferred.
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as SOC2 and PCI is preferred.
  • Ability to work within platform defaults that incorporate security and compliance requirements.

Benefits

  • Access to SoFi’s comprehensive and competitive benefits program.
  • Equal employment opportunities for all applicants and employees.
