TL;DR · Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

The Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer joins the Product and Research team to design, implement, and optimize components within distributed systems. This role focuses on ensuring scalability, resiliency, and operability for large-scale data processing, retrieval, and storage. 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 dashboards, and implement advanced security controls such as encryption and access remediation. The position requires expertise in distributed state management tools and data plane platforms to maintain data integrity and availability. You will also perform load testing, participate in incident response, and ensure all cloud infrastructure meets rigorous compliance and documentation standards.

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.
  • Implement security controls such as encryption, access management, and remediation plans.
  • Create dashboards, telemetry systems, and alarms to proactively monitor component health.
  • Diagnose and resolve system issues while participating in incident response and root cause analysis.
  • Execute performance and load tests, including fault-injection and brown-out scenarios.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 3 to 5+ years of experience.
  • Must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Must be able to design, implement, and optimize components in distributed systems for scalability and resiliency.
  • Must be able to develop automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting and maintenance.
  • Must be able to implement advanced security controls including encryption and access remediation.
  • Must be able to perform load and performance testing on large-scale data processing systems.
  • Must be able to diagnose, debug, and resolve issues in system components to support ongoing operations.
  • Must be able to participate in operational support rotations, including incident response and root cause investigations.
