We're a hyper-growth and profitable company, quickly expanding our expert network, launching new offices, and new products. We are headquartered in San Francisco, with offices in Brooklyn and Bangalore.

What We Believe
Human knowledge is the world's most valuable asset. And yet, despite being more interconnected than ever, most knowledge still remains stuck in our heads, inaccessible and underutilized. Our vision is to make human knowledge easily accessible and infinitely scalable by building tools for the new age knowledge economy.
About the Role
As a Senior Platform Engineer at Office Hours, you'll own the infrastructure and platform that power our marketplace and the products our experts and customers depend on every day. Your focus will be keeping our systems reliable, observable, secure, and easy to operate—with a strong emphasis on automation, security, and operational excellence.
This is a high-ownership role on a fast-growing, high-leverage team. You'll partner closely with product and platform engineers to reduce operational toil, harden our security posture, and give teams the confidence to ship quickly and safely as we scale.
