The Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer leads the development and architecture of scalable, elastic distributed systems. This role involves designing fault-tolerant components that support horizontal and vertical scaling while optimizing code and data paths for high-throughput, hyper-scale workloads. You will build systems capable of handling network unreliability through load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting, while ensuring data integrity via replication and synchronization. Key responsibilities include establishing KPIs, building proactive telemetry dashboards, and designing complex validation scenarios like fault injection and brownouts. You will utilize Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for automation, implement robust security controls for multi-tenant environments, and manage compliance documentation. The work focuses on solving complex problems regarding system reliability, durability, and operational readiness within large-scale data retrieval, storage, and processing environments.
