Job description

Through building tools and products for other engineers, our infrastructure team acts as a team multiplier - think auto-scaling, horizontal sharding, scalable storage systems, application performance monitoring, and more. We are in the early phases of building out our next generation cells architecture that will support a scale orders of magnitude what we can today. Curious? Talk to us, we’d love to tell you more.

What will you be doing?

  • Design and implement a new Kubernetes staging environment that engineers can spin up in under a minute
  • Build tools to scale developer workflows for a >50 person engineering team, for example, schema migration automation tool to run online MySQL migrations across a large number of production database shards
  • Building blocks of our next generation cells architecture, a precursor to an on-premise solution
  • Troubleshoot and resolve low-level bugs and issues, e.g. memcached throughput exceeding AWS caps, network partitions in our AWS VPC

Preferred experience

  • Product mindset – we’re a product company on a mission to “advance how people work”
  • 2+ years of industry experience building highly available, large-scale distributed systems at a large-scale internet service
  • Fluency in a dynamic language like Javascript, Python, Ruby, or similar
  • Track record of launching and delivering projects with some level of ambiguity
  • Experience operating asynchronous work queues, high-volume storage systems, or high-throughput systems
  • Understand the trade-offs in employing different engineering solutions to a problem, valuing pragmatism over idealism
  • Ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, collaborative, and high-growth environment
  • Full professional English proficiency

Bonus

  • Experience as a tech-lead of an infrastructure team
  • Experience scaling data stores such as MySQL and Elasticsearch
  • Advanced Linux systems engineering skills
  • Experience with Kubernetes and Docker
