Staff Software Engineer, Infrastructure

This is a Staff-level infrastructure engineering role focused on building the platform foundations that enable engineering teams to move faster and operate more reliably.
You’ll combine hands-on software engineering with technical leadership, shaping self-service infrastructure, cloud platforms, deployment systems, and operational tooling.
A major focus will be replacing expert-driven provisioning and operational workflows with paved roads that provide clear ownership, safe defaults, strong guardrails, and measurable adoption.
You’ll help evolve multi-region, cross-account infrastructure and Kubernetes foundations while improving reliability, security, scalability, and cost efficiency.
The role also includes developing AI-assisted operational workflows that reduce toil while keeping production changes safe, auditable, and human-reviewed.
You’ll influence architecture across teams through RFCs, design reviews, technical standards, and pragmatic engineering decisions.
Working in a small, growing team, you’ll have substantial ownership and the opportunity to drive infrastructure investments through real production adoption.

• 8+ years of professional, hands-on, full-time software engineering experience in backend, infrastructure, or platform engineering.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong software engineering expertise in Go or a comparable programming language, including system design, testing, debugging, code review, and long-term maintainability.
• Proven experience designing, delivering, and operating cloud services or infrastructure platforms in production.
• Deep expertise in at least one area such as Kubernetes, networking, cloud platforms, reliability engineering, or developer platforms.
• Strong Linux, networking, and production operations fundamentals.
• Experience setting technical direction and leading initiatives that require alignment across multiple engineering teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly in remote environments and through RFCs, design documents, and incident writeups.
• Experience with EKS, ingress, CNI, or service-mesh technologies is valuable.
• Familiarity with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, CI/CD, progressive delivery, GitHub Actions, Argo CD, and canary deployments is a plus.
• Experience leading large-scale migrations, platform adoption programs, or cross-team infrastructure initiatives is beneficial.
• Strong systems judgment, curiosity, pragmatic decision-making, and the ability to develop deep expertise while navigating adjacent technical domains.
• Willingness to participate in an operational on-call rotation and contribute to improving its effectiveness.
• Visa sponsorship may be considered on a case-by-case basis depending on business needs.
