- Enhance self-service for product engineering and data teams: Build and refine self-serve tools for event observability, debugging, load testing, and system configuration, empowering teams to experiment and ship quickly
- Simplify and modernize streaming architecture: Remove unnecessary abstraction layers, enable direct access for power users, and ensure the platform is flexible for both “paved path” and advanced use cases
- Solve complex distributed systems challenges: Improve event delivery reliability, cost efficiency, and system integration for real-time and batch workloads
- Champion best practices and technology selection: Stay ahead of industry advancements in event streaming, advocating for tools and approaches that balance innovation with long-term reliability
- Collaborate across engineering: Partner with product, data, and infrastructure teams to launch new customer-facing features, integrations, and scalable solutions built on streaming infrastructure

- Proficient in Java (Spring Boot) and familiar with modern development practices, including object-oriented design, data structures, and algorithms
- Able to debug issues across the stack—from message serialization and event schemas to network and JVM tuning—and communicate tradeoffs clearly
- Familiar with resource scheduling, data locality, and how infrastructure choices impact cost and system behavior
- Experience with observability and developer tooling for streaming (e.g., tracing, metrics, replay).Infrastructure-as-code expertise (Terraform, Helm), comfortable with Kubernetes (EKS) and cloud-native environments
- Track record of modernizing platforms: sunsetting legacy systems, moving to managed services, or implementing self-service capabilities
- Excited by new technologies, but pragmatic about introducing them—focused on solving real business problems
What We Use
- Our infrastructure runs primarily in Kubernetes hosted in AWS’s EKS
- Infrastructure tooling includes Istio, Datadog, Terraform, CloudFlare, and Helm
