Platform Engineer - Client Solutions

Who We Are Tensure is a platform engineering consultancy built for financial services. We help banks, fintechs, lenders, insurers, and wealth management firms ship better software faster — by building world-class developer platforms that let their engineering teams focus on code, not on navigating tribal knowledge. We’re clever and pragmatic but we also embrace the magic that happens when personality collides with technical excellence. Because ultimately, innovation isn’t boring (and neither are we). Where You'll Come In As a Platform Engineer - Client Solutions you'll split your time between helping our clients build modern cloud platforms and partnering with our Sales team to design technical solutions for prospective customers. Approximately 50% of your time will be billable, working directly with clients on platform engineering engagements. The remaining time will focus on supporting go-to-market efforts by leading technical discovery, solution design, scoping projects, and helping customers understand how Tensure can solve their infrastructure challenges. You'll serve as the technical expert during the sales process while remaining hands-on enough to stay current with modern cloud technologies and delivery best practices.
