About the role and how we work
We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer with deep infrastructure expertise to help us build and operate production systems that our customers rely on daily. Our infrastructure mainly runs on Google Cloud and is managed with Terraform. Since starting the company five years ago, we’ve reached 99.9% uptime every year. Our code is continuously deployed to production, with high automated test coverage. While we’re very experienced with building production systems that scale, you will be the first person to be fully dedicated to the Platform & Infrastructure work with this title.
Examples of things you'll do
Assist product teams in running their Kubernetes payloads and automating manual steps. Design and implement infrastructure changes using Terraform Collaborate with product teams to optimize application performance and resource utilization Look near: Notice our message queue getting backed up? Dive in, analyze the bottleneck, and implement a solution before it affects our users Look far: See our cloud costs trending up? Analyze usage patterns, identify optimization opportunities, and work with the team to implement efficient solutions Configure VPCs and securely segment production networks Write documentation and playbooks with the team - we prefer collaborative problem-solving over working in silos Set up and fine-tune monitoring and SLO alerting in our observability stack to catch issues before they impact customers Plan when to upsize our PostgreSQL servers or bring more machines to our Kubernetes cluster. Go spelunking in Google Security Command Center, review security posture, and implement improvements to keep our platform secure and compliant Design and implement automated disaster recovery procedures, then work with the team to practice them regularly Automate away manual operational tasks - if you find yourself doing something more than twice, it's probably time to automate it Work with the team to implement and maintain compliance requirements while keeping our development workflow smooth Jump into a customer support chat when there's a problem with a customer's data sync Optimize PostgreSQL performance by identifying table and index bloat and tuning pg_repack runs
