Principal AI Platform Engineer (CA)
pointclickcare
This role puts you at the center of how PointClickCare integrates AI into its products. As a Principal AI Platform Engineer, you'll own the infrastructure layer that connects generative AI systems to real workflows. For someone early in your career, this means working on problems that matter while building deep expertise in a high-demand field.
Your day-to-day involves designing and maintaining the core infrastructure for GenAI products, including model gateways, prompt stores, vector databases, and evaluation tools. You'll implement security controls, develop monitoring and logging solutions for AI workloads, and collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate AI capabilities into agent frameworks. This is hands-on infrastructure work, not theory.
You're a fit if you have strong fundamentals in systems design, databases, or backend engineering. Experience with cloud platforms, API design, and observability tools helps. A portfolio or past projects showing you've built something real will stand out more than any credential.
