Research Engineer / Software Engineer (platform/core infrastructure)

Strong experience building and operating scalable, distributed systems on cloud infrastructure such as AWS or similar. Comfortable working with infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, CDK). A track record of performance tuning across cloud services, databases, and compute layers. Eager to learn new tools, languages, and technologies as needed. A thoughtful communicator who values clarity and simplicity. Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work with incomplete information. Curious, practical, and eager to work across layers of the stack when needed. Proactive about failure modes and experience implementing disaster recovery and business continuity plans. Experience with deploying infrastructure to multiple environments (SaaS, on-prem) and building resilient systems. Experience with event-driven architectures, message queues, or async workflows (e.g., Kafka). Familiarity with modern observability practices (logs, metrics, tracing). Experience working in an early stage startup. Prior experience building developer tooling or security products. Hands-on experience with OpenSearch or Elasticsearch at scale. Previous experience building platform teams or working on internal developer platforms.

Design and implement infrastructure systems that scale reliably and securely across multiple cloud environments (AWS, Azure, OCI etc.) and contexts (SaaS, on prem). Tune and optimize cloud services across compute, storage, networking, and observability to drive performance, reliability and maintainability of core services. Develop core services, written in TypeScript, Kotlin and Go. Support large-scale systems with event driven architectures. Own problems end-to-end—from design through deployment to production support. Navigate ambiguity and help define how we build as much as what we build. Partner closely with other engineers, AI researchers and Security researchers. Design for resilience by implementing disaster recovery and business continuity strategies. Improve how we build, deploy, and monitor services at scale.
