Role Posting Log in to save

The Director, Core Infrastructure Engineering leads multiple teams to architect and deliver interdependent, scalable distributed systems. This role involves orchestrating cross-group optimizations for high-throughput, large-scale data processing while aligning stakeholders on scalability requirements. The leader oversees elastic designs, data plane platforms, and fault-tolerant architectures capable of in-service updates. Key responsibilities include setting standards for partition-aware design, load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting to handle network unreliability. The position requires driving KPI and telemetry strategies, creating complex dashboards, and ensuring data replication and synchronization. Technical focus areas include formal verification, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), encryption, and access controls for multi-tenant environments. The role solves complex problems regarding system durability, availability, and operational readiness to eliminate customer maintenance windows while ensuring cloud infrastructure compliance with industry standards.

  • Orchestrate cross-group optimizations for high-throughput, large-scale data processing and data plane platforms.
  • Provide strategic oversight for fault-tolerant architectures, including redundancy, replication, and automatic failover mechanisms.
  • Lead initiatives to harden networks via load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting techniques.
  • Drive KPI and telemetry strategies to create complex dashboards and proactive alerting for system health.
  • Guide organization-wide incident management and operational readiness to eliminate customer maintenance windows.
  • Provide strategic security guidance on encryption, access controls, and cloud infrastructure compliance.
  • Sponsor automation through Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to enable safe patching and rollbacks at scale.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 10+ years of experience.
  • Must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Must lead multiple teams in implementing strategies for scalable distributed systems architecture and delivery.
  • Must oversee cross-group optimization for high-throughput, large-scale data processing and data plane platforms.
  • Must provide strategic oversight for fault-tolerant, in-service-upgradable architectures and partition-aware design choices.
  • Must drive KPI and telemetry strategies, including the creation of complex dashboards and alerting mechanisms.
  • Must provide strategic guidance on security measures, including encryption, access controls, and cloud infrastructure compliance.
  • Must provide strategic guidance on developing and maintaining automation scripts and tools such as Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
