This role focuses on building fault-tolerant systems by applying principles such as redundancy, replication, failover, and recovery-oriented computing. Day-to-day responsibilities include executing performance and load tests, setting up telemetry and alerting configurations, and drafting runbooks for incident response. The engineer will also implement scoped features, maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scripts, and perform troubleshooting to ensure system correctness and availability. Key technical areas involve managing data plane platforms for large-scale retrieval and processing while ensuring cloud infrastructure remains in compliance with industry standards. The role addresses the challenge of maintaining high-availability systems that require seamless updates without service interruptions for users or customers.

What you'll do

  • Implement distributed system components that support horizontal and vertical scaling under senior guidance.
  • Execute performance, load, and fault-injection testing to evaluate system correctness and reliability.
  • Build and maintain telemetry systems, dashboards, and alerting configurations to monitor component health.
  • Draft and execute runbook-driven incident responses and root cause investigations during operational rotations.
  • Maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scripts and automation tools for system management.
  • Resolve technical issues using automated tooling while following strict change management protocols.
  • Update documentation to ensure cloud infrastructure complies with industry standards and security requirements.

What we're looking for

  • Applicants must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Candidates should have 0 to 2+ years of experience in the field.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scripts is required.
  • Ability to perform load testing, telemetry setup, and alert configuration is required.
  • Knowledge of distributed systems, scalability, and fault tolerance principles is preferred.
  • Ability to follow change management procedures and security protocols is required.
  • Capability to troubleshoot system components and participate in incident response is required.
