TL;DR · Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

The Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer joins the team to design, implement, and optimize components within distributed systems. This role focuses on ensuring scalability, resiliency, and operability for large-scale data processing. Key responsibilities include building fault-tolerant paths using redundancy, replication, and automatic failover, while applying recovery-oriented computing principles like circuit breakers and timeouts. The engineer will develop automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting, manage telemetry systems, and perform load testing. Technical requirements include expertise in distributed state management tools, data plane platforms, and advanced security controls such as encryption and access remediation. The position addresses the technical challenge of maintaining data integrity and availability in multi-tenant environments, requiring the development of robust synchronization techniques and proactive incident response through runbooks and root cause analysis.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement scalable components for distributed systems using distributed state management tools.
  • Optimize code and systems for large-scale data retrieval, storage, and processing.
  • Build fault-tolerant paths including redundancy, replication, automatic failover, retries, and circuit breakers.
  • Develop automation scripts and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting and cloud maintenance.
  • Create dashboards, telemetry systems, and alarm configurations to proactively monitor component health.
  • Perform load testing, fault-injection, and brown-out tests to evaluate system correctness.
  • Apply advanced security controls such as encryption and access remediation in multi-tenant environments.
  • Participate in incident response, perform root cause analysis, and author operational runbooks.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 3 to 5+ years of experience.
  • Must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Experience designing and optimizing components in distributed systems for scalability, resiliency, and operability.
  • Experience implementing fault-tolerant paths including redundancy, replication, automatic failover, retries, circuit breakers, and timeouts.
  • Experience developing automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting and maintenance.
  • Experience applying advanced security controls such as encryption and access remediation.
  • Experience building dashboards, telemetry systems, and alerting mechanisms to monitor component health.
  • Experience performing performance and load testing for large-scale data processing.
