Valences AI Powered Leadership Coach allows enterprises to offer executive level coaching at scale. Backed by Bessemer and Insight.
About the role
As a Platform Engineer at Valence, you will build and operate the secure, reliable, and scalable foundation that lets every product and AI team ship Nadia innovations faster and with lower risk. Platform Engineering is Valence's force multiplier: we own the shared control planes for trust and safety, global access and routing, LLM governance, deployment automation, workload isolation, observability and SLOs, and AI-native engineering execution.
What they're looking for
- Technical foundation: 8+ years of experience in software engineering, distributed systems, infrastructure, or platform/SRE roles, with a track record of building systems other teams depend on
- Platform mindset: You build reusable primitives, not one-off features. You think in terms of paved roads, secure defaults, and standards that scale across many teams
- Reliability and change-safety expertise: Hands-on experience with CI/CD, progressive delivery, rollback and migration safety, observability, SLOs, and incident response
- Cloud & deployment experience: Comfortable developing and operating services in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and working with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Security & compliance awareness: Familiarity with implementing platform-level guardrails (authorization, auditability, data-access controls, and policy enforcement) in a privacy- and residency-conscious way
- Engineering excellence: Strong software engineering skills, including writing maintainable code, debugging distributed systems, and collaborating in cross-functional teams

Our focus is on the problems that actually decide whether AI changes how organizations operate — the ones with no playbook, no obvious answers, and no guarantee of success. If you want to be part of the small group that defines how AI transforms the future at a global scale, this is your chance.
And this isn’t for everyone. We’re not looking for people who want predictability or incremental progress. We only want those who are restless at the edge of what’s possible, who get bored when things feel “done,” and who are driven to redefine what AI can mean for leaders, companies, and the world. Because at Valence, the work worth doing is the kind that redefines work itself.
