===============================================================

What You’ll Do

  • Own the production operation of the platform end to end, including reliability, availability, performance, and cost
  • Define SLOs and build monitoring, alerting, and incident response processes; lead on-call response and blameless postmortems
  • Architect and evolve scalable backend systems that orchestrate multi-stage analysis workloads, including AI-driven components, and process results at scale
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code to enable safe, repeatable releases and rollbacks
  • Monitor and optimize per-request cost across compute and AI inference; build cost visibility and anomaly detection
  • Establish operational excellence practices: runbooks, capacity planning, load testing, and on-call rotation design that scales beyond a single owner
  • Drive technical decisions on system architecture, technology stack, and infrastructure design
  • Champion AI adoption to enhance development workflows and code quality

Qualification/Requirement

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
  • 5+ years of backend development experience delivering and operating production systems at scale
  • Hands-on experience owning production services, including on-call and incident handling through root cause analysis and follow-up actions
  • Proficiency in at least one backend language
  • Hands-on experience with microservices development and Kubernetes deployment
  • Experience designing and managing CI/CD pipelines
  • Cloud-based development experience (AWS preferred; Azure or GCP acceptable)
  • Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code frameworks (Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi)
  • Experience designing observability (metrics, logs, tracing) and defining alerts, not only consuming existing dashboards

Nice to Have

  • Experience operating services that depend on AI inference or external APIs (rate limits, retries, cost control), including LLM gateway, tracing, and evaluation tooling integrated into CI/CD pipelines
  • Experience with workload isolation or secure execution environments
  • Experience with queue-based or asynchronous processing systems at scale (Kafka, SQS, or similar)
  • Experience with resource estimation, capacity planning, and cost optimization in the cloud
  • Ability to drive cross-team adoption of operational practices such as on-call, SLOs, and postmortems
  • Expertise in containerization (Docker) and DevOps/SRE practices
  • Proficiency with AI development tools (Claude Code, Cursor)
  • Experience in security product or cybersecurity domain
