About the position

You will work with the SREs in your team and engineers in the department on all things infra. You will help make our current and future products more reliable, secure, and cost-efficient while reducing toil via automation and keeping alerting noise to a minimum. You will be a backbone that provides structural integrity to the products we currently have and will launch in the future.

  • Facilitate future development by improving the existing infrastructure, code quality, monitoring, CI/CD pipelines.

  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-a-code tools, preferably Terraform.
  • Proficiency in at least one of the backend languages (Golang, Python, etc.).
  • Experience with container orchestration frameworks, preferably Kubernetes.
  • Willingness to dig into the unfamiliar codebases written in Rails, TypeScript, or Golang — while we don’t expect direct contributions to the product features, some understanding of the inner workings will be required.
  • Being able to work in Japan standard time (working partially in JST can be discussed).
