Your mission

As a Cloud Systems Engineer in our Cloud Infrastructure team, your primary mission will be to help us develop and maintain our infrastructure and network architecture. This will require deep knowledge of AWS networking architecture, scaling serverless solutions and deployments best practices.

Beyond your team responsibilities, you will contribute to company-wide goals around the design, implementation and maintenance of the infrastructure that underpins our cutting-edge platform. You'll play a vital role in keeping our systems healthy and secure as we strive for the world-class availability, reliability and performance our customers depend on to run integrations at scale.

We always seek to use the right tool for the job. Currently our infrastructure relies on AWS, Docker, Terraform, Kubernetes, DataDog, and Linux.

What you will do

• Build, maintain, improve and scale our infrastructure, from serverless functions through to distributed data processing services and databases.
• Support software engineers in the development of services with a systems perspective, from design through to deployment.
• Optimise our deployments of a range of systems, including relational & non-relational databases, with an emphasis on specialised services such as Redis, Elasticsearch, and DynamoDB.
• Assist our release engineers in building and managing CI/CD pipelines, and optimise our path to production through multiple environments and regions.
• Work alongside our SRE team in proposing and prioritising improvements to our systems, with a data-driven approach based on metrics and analysis.
• Craft documentations on project requirements, design decisions, technical specifications, architecture diagrams, and user-manuals.

About you

• Extensive knowledge of various AWS services
• Solid understanding of network protocols.
• Experience with orchestration tools such as Terraform, Serverless, or Ansible.
• Experience with clustering and containerisation technologies (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes, ECS).
• Knowledge of infrastructure best practices.
