We're seeking an experienced Engineer to join our engineering team, handling massive-scale data processing and analytics infrastructure that supports over 1B daily events, 3M+ DAU, and 50k+ hours of content. The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between raw data collection and actionable insights, while supporting our ML initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and scale the Infrastructure Pod, setting technical direction for data, platform, and DevOps initiatives.
  • Architect and evolve our cloud infrastructure to support 1B+ daily events — ensuring reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
  • Collaborate with Data Engineering and ML pods to build high-performance pipelines and real-time analytics systems.
  • Define and implement SLOs, observability standards, and best practices for uptime, latency, and data reliability.
  • Mentor and grow engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and continuous learning.
  • Partner with leadership on long-term architecture and scaling strategy — from infrastructure cost optimization to multi-region availability.
  • Lead initiatives on infrastructure automation, deployment pipelines, and platform abstractions to improve developer velocity.
  • Own security, compliance, and governance across infrastructure and data systems.

 

Who You Are

  • Previously a Tech Co-founder / Founding Engineer / First Infra Hire who scaled a product from early MVP to significant user or data scale.
  • 5–12 years of total experience, with at least 2+ years in leadership or team-building roles.
  • Deep experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), 
  • Experience with containers (Docker, Kubernetes), and IaC tools (Terraform, Pulumi, or CDK).
  • Hands-on expertise in data-intensive systems, streaming (Kafka, RabbitMQ, Spark Streaming), and distributed architecture design.
  • Proven experience building scalable CI/CD pipelines, observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK), and infrastructure for data and ML workloads.
  • Comfortable being hands-on when needed — reviewing design docs, debugging issues, or optimizing infrastructure.
  • Strong system design and problem-solving skills; understands trade-offs between speed, cost, and scalability.
  • Passionate about building teams, not just systems — can recruit, mentor, and inspire engineers.

 

Preferred Skills

  • Experience managing infra-heavy or data-focused teams.
  • Familiarity with real-time streaming architectures.
  • Exposure to ML infrastructure, data governance, or feature stores.
  • Prior experience in the OTT / streaming / consumer platform domain is a plus.
  • Contributions to open-source infra/data tools or strong engineering community presence.

 

What We Offer

  • Opportunity to build and scale infrastructure from the ground up, with full ownership and autonomy.
  • High-impact leadership role shaping our data and platform backbone.
  • Competitive compensation + ESOPs.
  • Continuous learning budget and certification support.
  • A team that values velocity, clarity, and craftsmanship.

 

Success Metrics

  • Reduction in infra cost per active user and event processed.
  • Increase in developer velocity (faster pipeline deployments, reduced MTTR).
  • High system availability and data reliability SLAs met.
  • Successful rollout of infra automation and observability frameworks.
  • Team growth, retention, and technical quality.
