The Metadata Platform team builds and operates the central nervous system for our company's data. Our platform provides the foundational services that manage and serve critical metadata to our core products, running 24/7 across multiple cloud providers and regions worldwide.

• Collaborate with development teams to define their requirements and deliver robust, effective data solutions that meet their needs in a cost effective way.
• Own and execute key technical projects that improve the reliability, scalability, and efficiency of our data infrastructure.

The qualifications you need:

• 6+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, and operating distributed data systems at scale (e.g., databases, messaging systems, Object Storage).
• Essential hands-on experience with cloud-native technologies, particularly build, test and deployment through IaC(e. g terraform, cross plane)
• Deep understanding of system performance tuning, observability, and reliability engineering (SRE) principles for high-throughput systems.
• Solid programming or scripting skills for automation and infrastructure management (e.g., Python, Go, Bash).
• Proficiency with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, with a collaborative mindset and a passion for mentoring.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
