Staff Infrastructure Engineer

Design and maintain the infrastructure layer that growth engineers build on top of, including onboarding flows, referral systems, and user acquisition pipelines

Debug reliability incidents affecting growth surfaces, own the investigation end-to-end, and make sure the same failure mode doesn't repeat

Review growth team pull requests for infrastructure soundness, scalability concerns, and anything that could cause problems at higher traffic volumes

Instrument data pipelines to surface bottlenecks and failure points before they hit production

Coordinate with growth engineering to make clear calls about when to harden existing systems versus when to ship new ones

Set the standards and patterns that the growth team builds against, so individual engineers aren't making the same infrastructure decisions from scratch on every project

Identify the ambiguous systems that sit between teams, define their boundaries, and drive improvements without waiting for someone to assign them to you

7+ years of infrastructure or platform engineering experience, with meaningful time spent owning systems in production

Track record of shipping systems under real user-growth pressure, not just maintaining inherited infrastructure

Comfortable owning systems end-to-end without close oversight, including making judgment calls when there's no obvious right answer

Experience reducing incidents proactively, finding bottlenecks in data pipelines or user-facing flows before they become outages

Strong instincts for the tradeoff between shipping velocity and correctness in a fast-moving team environment

(Plus) Prior experience building growth-specific infrastructure such as referral systems, onboarding flows, or user acquisition tooling

(Plus) Experience working in small, high-autonomy engineering teams where the scope of your role is defined by what needs to get done

Base salary range: $250,000 to $500,000 annually, plus equity and benefits.

This range reflects a good-faith estimate for this position. Experience levels vary widely within a title here, so please reach out even if your expectations fall outside it. We're always happy to chat.
