- *Your Team's Impact**The NoSQL team manages the infrastructure, deployment, and lifecycle of enterprise NoSQL and data platforms, including provisioning, updates, patching, and troubleshooting. We collaborate with data stakeholders to configure, monitor, and resolve issues across a diverse portfolio of technologies (Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Weaviate, Dremio, Redis, Valkey, DocumentDB, MSK, Zookeeper, Snowflake, and others). The team owns the operational excellence and reliability of these distributed systems from deployment through production support.
You'll join an international platform engineering team where hands\-on problem\-solving is valued over process overhead. We expect you to dig into problems, learn our systems deeply, and take initiative—not wait for detailed specifications.
- We're looking for a hands\-on **Platform Engineer** to join our international platform team. You'll take ownership of architecting, deploying, and maintaining our caching infrastructure within our Kubernetes ecosystem. This is a mid\-level position where you'll work across distributed teams spanning USA and India time zones, collaborating on infrastructure automation and reliability improvements.
- **Design \& Deploy Caching Systems** : Architect and implement caching solutions (Redis, Memcached, etc.) optimized for our Kubernetes clusters, balancing performance, cost, and reliability.
- **Infrastructure as Code** : Build and maintain Terraform and Ansible playbooks for provisioning, updating, and scaling caching infrastructure.
- **Day\-2 Operations** : Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize caching layer performance; respond to incidents and implement preventative measures.
- **Kubernetes Integration** : Develop Kubernetes manifests, operators, and controllers for deploying and managing caching workloads; tune resource requests and limits.
- **Automation** : Create runbooks and automation scripts to reduce manual toil; improve deployment velocity and observability.
- **On\-Call Support** : Participate in on\-call rotation to respond to infrastructure incidents and maintain system reliability.
- **Collaboration** : Partner with platform, infrastructure, and application teams across time zones to understand requirements and deliver solutions.
- **Hands\-on** : You debug issues directly, write code, and prefer building over managing.
