TL;DR · Cloud Infrastructure Engineer

The Cloud Infrastructure Engineer joins the Synthetic Data Group Cloud Infrastructure team to architect and develop secure, high-performance cloud services for machine learning and synthetic data initiatives. You will design scalable services and pipelines to process large volumes of data, tackling complex distributed system challenges such as optimizing data storage, retrieval, and low-latency computations. Your daily work involves full-stack ownership of cloud services, from defining APIs to implementing back-end services and deploying infrastructure as code. You will utilize a technology stack including AWS services, Kubernetes, Terraform, Golang, and databases like Postgres. Key responsibilities include building microservices, managing S3 and SQS messaging patterns, and using quantitative modeling to improve performance. You will collaborate with data scientists to integrate new algorithms into the platform while mentoring other engineers.

What you'll do

  • Architect and operate secure, scalable cloud infrastructure for machine learning and synthetic data platforms.
  • Design and implement microservices and APIs from initial system design through production deployment.
  • Optimize data storage, messaging, and service-to-service communication patterns for high throughput and low latency.
  • Develop and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform, Helm Charts, and Kubernetes manifests.
  • Apply quantitative modeling and iterative prototyping to optimize system performance, cost, and reliability.
  • Drive cross-functional architecture alignment through design reviews and technical proposals.
  • Mentor engineers and establish best practices for security, testing, and operational excellence.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience building and operating cloud infrastructure or distributed systems at scale.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS services including EC2, EKS, S3, ELB, and SQS.
  • Experience with Kubernetes-based container orchestration and production operations.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform.
  • Strong programming skills in Go (Golang) and proficiency in at least one other language like JavaScript or Python.
  • Experience designing and building microservices-based architectures and production environments with relational and NoSQL databases.
  • Experience with container and serverless technologies, CI tools like Jenkins, and Linux systems (preferred).
