Staff Software Engineer, Infrastructure
TLDR
Senior infrastructure engineer building self-service platforms and multi-region foundations to accelerate provisioning, deployment, and observability for large-scale engineering teams.
- Lead the design and evolution of internal infrastructure platforms by turning ambiguous technical challenges into scalable architectural solutions and driving them through RFCs and cross-team alignment.
- Build self-service platform capabilities and APIs (primarily in Go) for provisioning, onboarding, deployment, observability, and operational workflows with strong documentation and adoption focus.
- Define and implement delivery standards using Terraform, GitOps (Argo CD), CI/CD pipelines, and progressive delivery strategies to ensure safe and repeatable deployments.
- Architect and improve multi-tenant Kubernetes (EKS) infrastructure, including networking, ingress (Envoy Gateway), traffic routing, and multi-region, cross-account connectivity.
- Enhance platform reliability through improved SLOs, monitoring, alerting, and incident response processes using observability tooling such as Grafana Cloud.
- Drive adoption of platform systems across engineering teams, ensuring solutions are intuitive, safe, and measurably reduce operational dependency on manual intervention.
- Participate in on-call rotations while continuously improving operational health through better alerts, runbooks, and long-term reliability engineering practices.
- 8+ years of hands-on software engineering experience in backend, infrastructure, or platform engineering roles.
- Strong programming experience in Go or similar languages, with a focus on system design, testing, debugging, and long-term maintainability.
- Proven track record of building, scaling, and operating production-grade cloud infrastructure or platform systems.
- Deep expertise in at least one of: Kubernetes, cloud platforms, networking, reliability engineering, or developer platforms.
- Strong understanding of Linux systems, networking fundamentals, and production operations at scale.
- Experience leading technical direction and driving cross-team alignment through RFCs, architecture reviews, and design documentation.
- Familiarity with modern infrastructure tooling such as Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, GitOps (Argo CD), and observability stacks (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Grafana).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills in a remote-first environment.
- Nice to have: experience with EKS, service mesh/ingress, progressive delivery, or large-scale platform migrations and adoption initiatives.
- Competitive compensation with equity participation
- Remote-first work environment with global flexibility
- Flexible PTO and scheduled company-wide breaks for rest and recovery
- Home office setup support and monthly technology stipend
- Annual learning and development budget for courses, conferences, and training
- Paid parental leave (up to 16 weeks after eligibility period)
- Health, dental, and vision coverage (varies by location)
- Retirement and financial benefits depending on region
- Inclusive, distributed engineering culture focused on ownership and impact
- Opportunity to shape foundational infrastructure used by large-scale engineering organizations.
