We're looking for a skilled Senior Backend Engineer to join our core team. In this role, you will focus on building a Kubernetes-based data pipeline product that customers can self-deploy into their own cloud environments, working within a product-driven team to streamline deployments, optimize infrastructure as code, and elevate our platform's reliability

Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with the engineering team, CEO, and Product team to design and implement new features to our self-hosted and hosted cloud governance products.
  • Develop and maintain deployment processes that enable customers to self-host our product on Kubernetes clusters, or us to manage it for them.
  • Build, automate, and manage infrastructure with CloudFormation, Terraform, and other IAC tools.
  • Lead features end-to-end from RFC → Implementation → Testing → Documentation → Release.
  • Implement SRE best practices, focusing on automation, monitoring, and resilience to ensure the scalability and reliability of our platform, regardless of where it is deployed.
  • Contribute to our managed services and help optimize deployment for both self-hosted and managed environments.
  • Work directly with customers to iron out issues during deployment, and use this feedback to improve the product.
Requirements
    • 6+ years of experience in software engineering with a focus on backend infrastructure and orchestration.
    • Strong experience with Kubernetes (K8s) deployments and containerization.
    • Hands-on expertise in infrastructure-as-code tools like CloudFormation and Terraform.
    • Solid understanding of cloud providers (AWS/GCP/Azure) and managing infrastructure within these environments.
    • Experience implementing SRE best practices, with a focus on automation, monitoring, and incident management.
    • Strong written and spoken English to produce clear, detailed documentation.
    • Familiarity with Go is a plus.
Benefits
  • Remote-first company with flexible working arrangements.
  • Competitive salary with substantial equity upside.
  • A collaborative, remote-friendly culture with regular team events to stay connected.
  • High-impact role with ample opportunities for career growth.
