Why This Role Matters
Saviynt’s platform is mission-critical for our customers. As we scale globally, reliability, availability, and performance are not optional—they are core product features.
As a Principal Engineer, you will define and drive the reliability strategy for our SaaS platform. This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering role with broad influence across infrastructure, platform, and application teams. You will shape how Saviynt designs, operates, and measures reliability at scale.
This role is ideal for engineers who want to work on hard reliability problems, influence architecture across teams, and leave a lasting mark on a growing SaaS platform.
What You Will Do
In this pivotal role, you will be instrumental in designing, building, and maintaining the shared infrastructure services and platforms that our product and application teams will depend on
• You will focus on creating reusable, reliable, and scalable solutions that abstract away complexity, enabling other teams to focus on their core business logic and deliver features faster in a multi-cloud environment
• Design and build core platform components and shared infrastructure services that other development teams will integrate with and leverage to deploy and operate their applications
• Architect, implement, and manage highly available and scalable Kubernetes platforms as a service for internal consumers
• Develop robust, internal-facing tools and automation for infrastructure provisioning and management primarily using Go (Golang)
• Architect and optimize foundational solutions within Cloud environments (AWS, Azure, etc.), focusing on creating reusable patterns and modules for other teams
• Design and implement shared Event-Driven Architecture components and messaging platforms using technologies like Kafka or Google Pub/Sub that product teams can easily utilize
• Develop and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI and ArgoCD) as a service, providing standardized and automated deployment workflows for various development teams
