Employer-side hiring for developer-platform roles - API Product Manager, Platform Engineer/Architect, Partner/Integration Engineer. Disambiguates "platform engineer" first, since the term overwhelmingly means internal developer platforms elsewhere in the industry. Calibrates the scorecard to company archetype (infra/API-first, bolt-on public API, enterprise partner ecosystem), flags a scope-collapse pattern distinct from DevRel's gatekeeper/pit-trap taxonomy, sources from apidays, not PlatformCon's internal-IDP audience, builds the loop from the API-design-vs-system-design interview split, and benchmarks compensation against the general engineering/PM ladder rather than a bespoke platform title. Use when the user asks how to hire a platform engineer, API product manager, or partner/integration engineer, write a posting, or design a loop. Do NOT use for candidate prep (samber/developer-platform-skills@developer-platform-career) or DevRel hiring (samber/developer-relations-skills@devrel-hiring).
