The opportunity
We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer profile who will design and implement the Pigment infrastructure for tomorrow. Pigment is a technically challenging platform. It calculates and synchronizes large datasets that must be updated in real-time. Data comes from client models that can be up to billions of rows. This data can be pivoted, transformed, and aggregated on-demand through our formula engine while rendering live on our front end.
Here are the challenges to be tackled as a Senior Platform Engineer:
- Define and build the infrastructure needed to answer our performance challenges, automate it, and make it scalable. In particular, ensure that the infrastructure scales in and out according to the platform usage.
- Secure high availability and redundancy of the Pigment platform.
- Ensure that the platform’s performance and correctness are monitored accordingly, spread observability best practices across the engineering team.
- Participate in incident response.
- Accompany Pigment geographical expansion as the company grows and we sign clients overseas.
- Work with our security team on the implementation of their roadmap when related to infrastructure and development pipelines (code repository, credentials management, ...)
- Continuously chase inefficiencies within our development practices and pipelines. Seek improvement and automation wherever possible. Drive change across the software engineering team.
In addition to Platform responsibilities, we expect you to contribute to software development activities. This is not limited to scripting and automations - we expect to you to be fully capable of reading and writing code. We believe Senior Platform Engineers should collaborate closely with software engineers, fostering a shared understanding of day-to-day challenges, rather than operating in separate teams. Last but not least, you will not be alone! You will be part of an SRE team.
