The Infrastructure Engineer will work with the data science, analytics, and engineering teams to build optimized CI/CD pipelines, scalable AWS infrastructure, and Kubernetes deployments.

What you would be expected to do:

• Work with engineering, automation, and data teams to work on various infrastructure requirements.
• Designing modular and efficient GitOps CI/CD pipelines, agnostic to the underlying platform.
• Managing AWS services for multiple teams.
• Managing custom data store deployments like sharded MongoDB clusters, Elasticsearch clusters, and upcoming services.
• Deployment and management of Kubernetes resources.
• Deployment and management of custom metrics exporters, trace data, custom application metrics, and designing dashboards, querying metrics from multiple resources, as an end-to-end observability stack solution.
• Set up incident response services and design effective processes.
• Deployment and management of critical platform services like OPA and Keycloak for IAM.
• Advocate best practices for high availability and scalability when designing AWS infrastructure, observability dashboards, implementing IAC, deploying to Kubernetes, and designing GitOps CI/CD pipelines.

You might be a strong candidate if you have/are:

• Hands-on experience with Docker or any other container runtime environment and Linux with the ability to perform basic administrative tasks.
• Experience working with web servers (nginx, apache) and cloud providers (preferably AWS).
• Hands-on scripting and automation experience (Python, Bash), experience debugging and troubleshooting Linux environments and cloud-native deployments.
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines, with familiarity with monitoring & alerting systems (Grafana, Prometheus, and exporters).
• Knowledge of web architecture, distributed systems, and single points of failure.
• Familiarity with cloud-native deployments and concepts like high availability, scalability, and bottleneck.
• Good networking fundamentals — SSH, DNS, TCP/IP, HTTP, SSL, load balancing, reverse proxies, and firewalls.

What Sun King offers:

• Professional growth in a dynamic, rapidly expanding, high-social-impact industry.
• An open-minded, collaborative culture made up of enthusiastic colleagues who are driven by the challenge of innovation towards profound impact on people and the planet.
• A truly multicultural experience: You will have the chance to work with and learn from people from different geographies, nationalities, and backgrounds.
• Structured, tailored learning and development programs that help you become a better leader, manager, and professional through the Sun King Center for Leadership.
