Dedicated platform engineers for your offshore team.
Offshore platform engineers in Chiang Mai and Bangkok, working full time on your product and managed by us. A platform engineer builds the internal tools your own developers use, so shipping never requires knowing how the infrastructure works underneath.
The engineers work in your cloud accounts. Everything around them, from employment to training, is ours, for one fixed monthly fee.
This role is part of a dedicated cloud and DevOps team. It's staff augmentation, fully managed: take one role on its own, or the whole area as one delivery team.

What a Platform Engineer does on a dedicated cloud and DevOps team.
Your own developers are their customers. They collect what slows your teams down, build self-service tooling for it and measure whether shipping got faster.
Platform Engineer skills and technologies
-
Building golden paths and self-service tooling so teams provision without raising tickets.
-
Standardising build, deploy and environment patterns across services.
-
Developer experience work, measured in how long it takes a new engineer to ship something.
-
Maintaining the service catalogue so teams can find what already exists before rebuilding it.
-
Measuring developer experience, usually as time from first commit to first deploy.
Platform Engineer seniority levels.
Junior to lead. Platform work pays back fastest when the engineer building it has run the systems underneath, which usually means a senior. The level changes the price: see how the monthly fee is built.
When your team needs a Platform Engineer.
The right time is when several teams repeat the same infrastructure work. The platform engineer then joins the DevOps or cloud engineers in your dedicated cloud and DevOps team. It pays off for companies that hire dedicated developers across several teams and want them shipping the same way.
What we look for in a dedicated Platform Engineer.
We look for platform engineers who treat your own developers as their customers. They should have run Kubernetes and CI in production, and measure success in how quickly a new engineer ships.
A remote Platform Engineer's first three months on your team.
- Weeks 1 to 2Interviewing your own developers about where they lose time and mapping the current tooling.
- Weeks 3 to 6Building the first self-service path for the most repeated infrastructure task.
- Months 2 to 3Standardising build and deploy patterns and measuring time from first commit to first deploy.
Questions about adding a Platform Engineer to your team.
How many teams justify a platform engineer?
Usually three or more teams doing the same infrastructure work, each solving deployment, environments and monitoring in its own way. Below that, a DevOps engineer is the better fit. Above it, a platform engineer turns repeated effort into shared tools, which pays back quickly in faster, more consistent delivery.
Is this the same as DevOps?
They overlap. DevOps builds and runs the delivery pipeline. Platform engineering builds the internal tools your own developers use to reach it: templates, self-service environments and standard paths. The goal is that shipping a service never requires knowing how the infrastructure works underneath.
