    • Collaborate across engineering and data science teams to drive a culture of performance and reliability
    • Ensure security, compliance, and operational readiness across our physical and cloud infrastructure
    • Drive post-incident analysis and continuous improvement initiatives
    Must-Have Qualifications
    • 5+ years of experience in Tools development, SRE, DevOps, or platform engineering roles
    • Good programming skills with IaC (infrastructure as code) languages such as Ansible, Helm, Kustomize
    • Good programming skills with general-purpose languages such as Python or Go
    • Deep experience with containerization (Docker) and Kubernetes
    • Strong knowledge of Linux systems and networking fundamentals
    • Experience with monitoring and observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, OpenTelemetry)
    • Proficiency with CI/CD tools and pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, etc.)
    • Ability to debug complex systems and automate solutions in scripting languages (Python, Bash, etc.)
    • Excellent communication skills and the ability to work cross-functionally
    Nice-to-Have
    • Familiarity with build configuration tools, software dependency management and C++
    • Experience with datacenter automation such as system imaging and configuration management
    • Experience supporting data-intensive platforms (Spark, Airflow, Kafka, etc.)
    • Familiarity with security practices for cloud-native applications and infrastructure
    • Experience in high-compliance or SOC-2 environments
    What You'll Get
    • Ownership of mission-critical infrastructure in a company solving real-world enterprise problems
    • A front-row seat to a high-performance engineering culture
    • The ability to influence how our platform scales-from deployment to incident management
