Senior Software Engineer

Description

• Build the core platform: Design and implement backend systems and APIs that power HyperDX, enabling engineers to ingest, query, and analyze observability data at massive scale. • Scale deployments and infrastructure: Architect, deploy, and maintain cloud-native systems that ensure reliability, scalability, and performance. You’ll use Kubernetes, Helm, and infrastructure-as-code to make deployments simple and resilient. • Ensure maintainability and operational excellence: Define best practices for CI/CD, monitoring, logging, and alerting. Drive automation across testing, scaling, and incident response to keep our platform healthy and developer-friendly. • Engineer for scale: Design and operate ingestion and data processing pipelines that remain performant, resilient, and observable—even as we grow to petabyte-level workloads. • Engage with the community: Collaborate with open-source contributors and customers, solve their challenges, and incorporate their feedback into our roadmap.

Requirements

• 5+ years of backend engineering experience. • Strong TypeScript, Javascript and Node.js skills (bonus for additional languages). • Deep understanding of APIs, event-driven systems, and high-throughput data pipelines. • Proficiency in SQL and experience working with analytical databases (ClickHouse experience a plus). • Experience with Docker and Kubernetes, plus Helm for managing production deployments. • Experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar). • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, monitoring systems, and production-grade alerting practices. • A passion for building reliable, maintainable, cloud-native systems.
