Platform Engineering Manager

Location: Remote, within the Philadelphia to New York City corridor, with ability for in-person collaboration in Philadelphia.

Reports to: VP of Engineering

About Xpoint:

Xpoint builds the geolocation compliance layer for regulated online sports betting and gaming. Before an operator can accept a wager, they must prove the player is physically where the law says they must be, and prove it to a regulator, on demand. That is the problem we solve, in real time, at scale, for some of the largest betting operators in the US and internationally.

It is a genuinely hard engineering problem, and an unusually interesting one:

• Every request is a decision, not a lookup. We fuse GPS, Wi-Fi, network, and device-integrity signals into a single allow/deny call under a hard latency budget, at volumes that spike significantly around live sports.

• The problem is adversarial. People actively try to defeat us through spoofed locations, VPNs and proxies, remote desktops, virtualized devices, and tampered attestation. The work sits at the intersection of distributed systems, fraud detection, and security engineering.

• Every decision must be explainable. Our releases are filed with state gaming regulators before they can reach production. That raises the bar for correctness, traceability, and testing in a way that most consumer engineering never has to meet.

• We’re small enough that your decisions have a real impact. Xpoint is gaining market share by building better technology. You’ll be one of a handful of people shaping how our product actually works, with direct access to the executives making decisions about what we build.

The Role:

You will lead Xpoint's Site Reliability Engineering and Platform Engineering team, owning the reliability, scalability, security and cost of the infrastructure our geolocation services run on. You will set the technical direction for how we build, deploy, observe and operate our systems on AWS, and you will grow the team that does it.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You will spend most of your time leading people and making architectural decisions, and enough time...
