About the Role

Join our team as a Multigres Deployment Engineer to build and maintain the core operational infrastructure for our distributed Postgres platform. This exciting role involves ensuring reliable cloud deployments and developing the essential tooling that powers our Kubernetes-based environment.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain the Multigres Operator, our Go-based Kubernetes operator that orchestrates distributed Postgres deployments.
• Architect and implement robust cloud deployment patterns for EKS and other Kubernetes platforms.
• Manage storage and networking layers, working with CSI drivers, persistent volumes, and cross-cloud networking to ensure data reliability and connectivity.
• Develop internal tools and automation for provisioning, scaling, and managing Multigres clusters.
• Ensure operational excellence by building monitoring, alerting, and diagnostic capabilities into the deployment layer.
• Collaborate across database engineering, SRE, and product teams to deliver seamless deployment experiences.

Requirements

• Strong systems programming skills, with proficiency in Go and experience building production-grade operators or controllers.
• Deep Kubernetes expertise, including hands-on experience with Kubernetes internals, custom resources, and cloud-managed Kubernetes services (EKS, GKE, AKS).
• Database operations knowledge, understanding deployment patterns, backup/restore, replication, and high availability.
• Distributed systems experience, familiarity with consensus protocols, failure scenarios, and designing for resilience.
• Cloud infrastructure background, with experience in cloud-native deployment tooling, IaC (Terraform, Pulumi), and cloud provider APIs.
• Production operations mindset, with a track record of building reliable, observable, and maintainable systems.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with CSI storage drivers and storage orchestration in Kubernetes.
• Knowledge of cross-cloud networking tools like Cilium, Istio, or similar service mesh technologies.
• Prior work with sharded query serving systems like Vitess.
• Contributions to open-source infrastructure projects.
