Infrastructure Engineer Data Infrastructure

Description

As an engineer in our data infrastructure team, your mission is making sure we have a great platform to manage data in our production systems. You will work with systems affecting the whole engineering organization. The team makes sure we have effective ways to move data from one service to another, store data short and long term and transform data to suitable formats for later consumption by our data teams.

We act as "engineers for the engineers," helping others understand and leverage the architecture and platform underlying their features. Making it easy to set up, connect to and own data systems is our call to action. We strive for stable, secure systems while at the same time providing room for fast experimentation. We are using a modern container-based service architecture. We use technologies such as AWS, Linux, Kafka, Airflow, MySQL and Postgres. 

• Build and scale our cloud-based data infrastructure and help align it with the rest of our production infrastructure
• Build and improve our developer tooling around databases and other data infrastructure.
• Ensure high availability of key data systems including taking on-call responsibility.
• Actively drive initiatives towards better system design and implementation of new technologies.
