About
the Role Abnormal AI is hiring a Senior Software Engineer, Platform Engineering to help build the Federal Platform layer underpinning our GovCloud environment. This is a platform infrastructure role first: you will design and evolve the core infrastructure, deployment foundations, and platform patterns that make GovCloud behave more like a thin extension of our commercial platform, with less drift and stronger operational leverage over time. As the first engineer focused on Federal Platform, you will help define the charter for
the team, provide mentorship and guidance on platform-oriented topics in the GovCloud environment, and build the paved roads that make Federal Operations and application teams more self-sufficient as we scale the federal business. What you will do Lead the build-out and evolution of Abnormal’s FedRAMP High cloud infrastructure, translating security and compliance
requirements into reliable, auditable AWS implementations for the GovCloud environment. Design and maintain reusable Terraform modules, infrastructure patterns, and platform standards that make Gov changes safer, more repeatable, and easier for FedOps engineers to operate. Drive sound architectural decisions across compute, networking, and service design, balancing compliance, operational simplicity, and parity with commercial where it delivers the most value. Partner closely with FedRAMP, compliance, and other engineering teams to reduce environment drift, improve deployment readiness, and close high-impact gaps between Gov and commercial. Raise the operational bar for GovCloud through better monitoring, alerting, documentation, and incident readiness, with a focus on reducing toil and improving long-term maintainability. Serve as a technical leader for FedOps by mentoring engineers, guiding implementation quality, and helping
the team adopt AI-assisted workflows that speed up delivery and onboarding. Must Haves 7+ years of experience operating public cloud environments, with deep hands-on AWS expertise Strong, production-grade Terraform experience.

You don't need to ship full applications, but should be able to read, adapt, and write infrastructure automation scripts Demonstrated AI-forward mindset. Active use of AI in engineering workflows beyond as a coding assistant US Citizenship or Permanent Resident status (required for FedRAMP environment access)
Nice to Have Direct FedRAMP Moderate or High implementation experience Experience building developer enablement infrastructure: cloud code integration, local agent setup, or CI/CD pipelines Experience using AI/LLM tooling in production engineering contexts AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer, or equivalent) #LI-NT1 Actual
