AI Platform Engineer (Miami FL, US)

About Us

For more than four decades, Compuquip Cybersecurity has designed, implemented, and operated security programs for organizations that cannot afford to get it wrong. Our teams deliver 24x7 detection and response, managed firewall and network security, vulnerability management, and professional services across cloud, network, and endpoint environments.

We also embed experienced engineers directly with our largest customers, where they work as part of the customer's own teams on the infrastructure those customers depend on. These are long-term partnerships built on trust, and the people we place are an extension of Compuquip's reputation.

Location: This role is based in Miami and requires working on-site with our customer. The ideal candidate is currently living in the South Florida area. Relocation would be at your own expense and would be required immediately.

Work authorization: You must be authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship, now and in the future. We are not able to sponsor or transfer visas for this position.

About The Role

This role would join our Professional Service Team as a technical resource, embedded on-site with an enterprise customer and backed by the wider Compuquip engineering organization. 

The work is more than firewall administration. You will design and modernize network security architectures, lead migrations and platform transitions, and troubleshoot problems that cross firewalls, routing, VPN, segmentation, and cloud boundaries. 

We are looking for an engineer with a deep networking foundation who will take ownership and operate autonomously.

What You Will Work On

• Build, operate, and maintain production infrastructure platforms.

• Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration, and deployment using infrastructure-as-code and GitOps practices.

• Improve platform reliability, scalability, security, and operational consistency.

• Support application deployment, environment management, and CI/CD workflows.

• Implement access controls, secrets management, network security, and other platform security controls.

• Build and maintain monitoring, logging, dashboards, and alerting for infrastructure and application workloads.

• Troubleshoot production issues across infrastructure, networking, storage, deployments, and distributed systems.

• Create reusable platform patterns, tooling, and documentation for engineering teams.

• Identify repetitive operational work and replace it with automation.

• Partner with infrastructure, security, networking, application, and operations teams to deliver enterprise platform capabilities.

What You Will Do

• Platform Engineering

  Several years of experience operating production infrastructure or platform environments.

  Direct experience with Red Hat OpenShift a plus

  Strong Linux and systems administration skills.

  Experience with modern container and orchestration platforms.

  Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Ansible.

  Experience with GitOps and deployment tooling such as Argo CD, Helm, or similar technologies.

  Experience securing infrastructure platforms through access controls, network policies, secrets management, and security best practices.

  Strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure, networking, storage, and application environments.

   

• Automation and Delivery

  Experience with CI/CD platforms such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or similar tools.

  Strong understanding of source control, deployment workflows, configuration management, and rollback strategies.

  Experience automating infrastructure and operational processes.

   

• Scripting and Observability

  Strong scripting skills in Python, Bash, or similar languages.

  Comfort working with YAML, JSON, APIs, and command-line tooling.

  Experience with observability platforms such as Prometheus, Grafana, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, or similar tools.

  Ability to use logs, metrics, and system data to diagnose production issues.
  
  

How you work

• You take ownership of outcomes and follow through without needing close supervision.

• You are comfortable working directly within a large enterprise customer environment.

• You approach infrastructure with a security and reliability mindset.

• You automate repetitive work and continuously look for ways to improve the platform.

• You communicate clearly with technical teams, business stakeholders, and leadership.

Nice to Haves

• Experience with Kubernetes or enterprise container platforms.
  Public cloud experience across AWS, Azure, or GCP.

• Experience with service meshes, API gateways, ingress, or enterprise networking.

• Relevant cloud, infrastructure, or container certifications.

• Prior experience in utilities, energy, financial services, healthcare, or another regulated environment.
  
  

How We Work:

Three things define how we operate:

We get it done. We plan the change, validate it, and ship it. We would rather resolve the underlying architectural problem this quarter than manage around it for another year.

We work as a team. Nothing here gets built in isolation. Our best work comes from engineers, architects, and analysts solving problems in the same room, and we expect people to ask for help early and offer it freely.

We are customer obsessed. Every design decision is measured by whether it makes a customer safer or a service better. That is the standard, and it applies to internal standards as much as anything a customer sees.

Compensation:

Base salary is commensurate with experience, with a discretionary performance bonus and health and dental coverage.

This is a full-time, on-site role at an enterprise customer location in South Florida. We will be direct about compensation early in the process.
