About The Role
The GenAI Platform is Pleo's internal AI infrastructure team, the platform every customer-facing AI feature is built on. The team owns LLM serving (LiteLLM), the MCP gateway and tool registry, agentic runtime, evaluation tooling, and the observability layer that makes AI outputs trustworthy at scale. This is a technical engineering management role for a builder‑leader. You will lead a team of strong staff and senior engineers through a critical transition: evolving from a Kotlin‑first SDK to a hybrid architecture that makes Python a first‑class citizen for agentic development. You will own delivery of the platform roadmap, contribute to key technical decisions, and stay close enough to the work to shape architecture, unblock delivery, and set a high technical bar.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Lead the GenAI Platform team day‑to‑day as a builder‑leader: delivery, quality, team development, and ways of working.
- Own the execution of the platform roadmap including but not limited to LLM gateway, agentic runtime, MCP layer, data retrieval, eval tooling,



and the hybrid architecture transition.
- Manage the stakeholder relationship with Data & AI Products as the primary internal customer and ensure the platform roadmap is shaped by product demand, not platform preference.
- Drive active hiring for the team to build a team to deliver on the planned technical vision and roadmap.
- Partner with SRE on reliability standards, incident management, and production readiness for platform services.
- Represent the team in leadership and cross‑functional discussions ensuring to translate platform progress and blockers into terms that drive decisions.
- Own the team's cost and resourcing decisions: LLM spend, infrastructure costs, headcount.

For more context, our tech stack currently includes AWS, Kotlin, Python, Kubernetes, LiteLLM, BrainTrust, Temporal, LLM APIs and more. You do not need to be an expert across all of these, but need enough familiarity to follow technical
