Job Description:

The Infrastructure team builds foundational systems at scale. We're hundreds o billions of events per day through world scale custom streaming infrastructure, running invoice computations that push the limits of distributed systems, and building platforms that need to be correct, fast, and efficient simultaneously. Work spans the full infrastructure stack—from streaming platforms ingesting usage data, to huge offline batch jobs, to the observability and deployment tooling that keeps everything running reliably. Every platform you build multiplies the effectiveness of the entire engineering org.

Job Responsibility:

Build platforms that scale: Design and operate foundational infrastructure—Kubernetes clusters, Kafka streaming platforms, Spark batch processing, observability systems—that handle billions of events and enable Metronome to grow with minimal friction
Enable product velocity: Create golden paths, abstractions, and tooling that let engineers ship faster and more reliably without becoming infrastructure experts themselves
Enable reliability as the product: Take accountability for system uptime, performance, and correctness. Build monitoring, alerting, and incident response systems that enable the entire team catch problems before customers notice
Drive technical direction: Shape Metronome's infrastructure strategy, make platform-level architectural decisions, and mentor engineers across the organization

Requirements:

5+ years building infrastructure systems: Hands-on experience with distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, container orchestration, data pipelines, observability, CI/CD, or other foundational platforms
Ownership of production systems: Track record of operating mission-critical infrastructure with strong focus on reliability, scalability, and performance
Force multiplier mindset: You build platforms that enable others. You create abstractions that make complex systems approachable. You think about developer experience as a first-class concern
Cross-functional collaboration: You partner effectively with product teams, communicate technical decisions clearly, and mentor engineers across experience levels

What we offer:

Excellent medical, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage, including a One Medical membership
Paid parental leave
FSA (Flexible spending account)
Retirement planning - Traditional and ROTH 401(k)
Flexible time off
Employee assistance program (mental health benefits)
