What you will bring: • 7+ years of experience in software engineering, infrastructure engineering, or a closely related field • Strong programming skills in Golang or Python, with experience building reliable backend or infrastructure services • Deep understanding of distributed systems concepts such as fault tolerance, scalability, and system reliability • Hands-on experience deploying and operating containerized services in Kubernetes or similar cloud-native environments • Solid understanding of observability domains including metrics, logs, and traces • Experience with tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ClickHouse, or similar technologies; familiarity with time-series systems, high-throughput data pipelines, open-source infrastructure, or React/JavaScript is a plus Additional Details The base pay range for this position is expected i
