  • Scale streaming infrastructure to support high-throughput telemetry ingestion, high-cardinality workloads, and bursty infrastructure traffic patterns
  • Ensure streaming systems are reliable and observable, with strong instrumentation, dashboards, and alerting
  • Collaborate with SREs and platform teams to integrate streaming data into internal observability tools and operational workflows
  • Participate in on-call rotations, incident response, and post-incident reviews
  • Improve system reliability and developer experience through automation, CI/CD, and infrastructure-as-code practices
  • Contribute to technical design discussions and reviews for new streaming capabilities

What We're Looking For

  • Hands-on experience with Kafka or similar distributed streaming technologies
  • Proficiency in backend languages such as Java, Scala, Go, or Python
  • Experience operating services in cloud or large-scale infrastructure environments
  • Solid understanding of observability fundamentals including metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting
  • Comfort debugging production issues across distributed systems
  • Ability to own features end-to-end, from design through production operations
  • Strong collaboration skills and a pragmatic engineering mindset

  • Familiarity with stream processing frameworks and delivery semantics
