About the role
We are looking for a strong Infrastructure/Platform Engineer who has built and scaled production systems from scratch and through multiple growth stages (01/10/100). This role requires someone who is still deeply hands-on with engineering, not just managing infrastructure teams. You will be responsible for building scalable infrastructure, improving reliability, and enabling engineering teams to ship faster and safer.
Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and scale cloud infrastructure and internal developer platforms from early-stage to large-scale systems.
- Own infrastructure architecture, reliability, observability, and deployment pipelines.
- Build systems that scale from initial product launch to high-traffic production workloads.
- Improve deployment velocity, CI/CD pipelines, and developer experience.
- Design high availability, failover strategies, monitoring, and incident management frameworks.
- Build and maintain platform tooling, automation, and infrastructure-as-code frameworks.
- Work closely with product and engineering teams to ensure performance, scalability, and reliability.
- Lead infra decisions during scaling phases (traffic spikes, data growth, and system complexity).
Requirements:
- 6-12+ years of experience in infrastructure, platform engineering, or SRE roles.
- Experience scaling systems through multiple growth phases ().
- Strong hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS / GCP / Azure).
- Deep expertise in containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines and developer platforms.
- Strong understanding of distributed systems, scalability, and system reliability.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation).
- Hands-on coding ability in Go / Python / Java for building infra tools and automation.
- Strong knowledge of monitoring and observability (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK).
Nice to Have:
- Experience building internal developer platforms (IDP).
- Experience with high-scale systems (millions of requests/day)
- Prior experience in high-growth startups.
- Experience handling large-scale incidents, system migrations, or architecture rebuilds.
