Preferred experience includes OpenSearch, Elasticsearch, Kafka, Kubernetes, Helm, Prometheus, Grafana, Terraform, Salt, and Ansible to solve complex infrastructure and data visibility problems.

What you'll do

  • Design and build highly available, self-healing systems with automated recovery and fault detection.
  • Automate infrastructure, configuration, and releases using infrastructure as code and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Execute load tests to analyze throughput, latency, and resource utilization while identifying performance bottlenecks.
  • Use telemetry, dashboards, and alerts to diagnose production issues and improve system reliability.
  • Develop and integrate secure services through REST APIs.
  • Perform code reviews and document engineering decisions and runbooks.
  • Build software and automation to make massive data footprints accessible and searchable.

What we're looking for

  • 3 to 5+ years of experience is required.
  • Experience developing production software in Python, Java, or another general-purpose language with automated testing, Git, and code review is required.
  • Experience designing highly available, self-healing systems including failure detection, retries, failover, and automated recovery is required.
  • Experience with load testing, performance analysis, and Linux troubleshooting is required.
  • Experience developing REST APIs with TLS, certificates, and secure network connections is required.
  • Experience deploying cloud or containerized services using infrastructure or configuration automation is required.
  • Experience with telemetry, search, or streaming platforms like OpenSearch, Elasticsearch, Logstash, or Kafka (preferred).
