• Automation & DBaaS: You will drive the automation of deployment, replication, backup, and patching processes, turning complex caching infrastructure into a seamless "self-service" model controlled via Golang-based REST/gRPC APIs.
• System Design & Scale: You will design robust, highly available, and fault-tolerant caching solutions, proactively optimizing configurations and capacity to scale with customer demand.
• End-to-End Ownership: We live by "You build it, you run it." You will accompany your services from the first line of code through Kubernetes orchestration to incident analysis (Post-Mortems).
• Technical Leadership: You will guide the technical direction of the product and mentor team members, raising the bar for engineering excellence and modern SRE practices.

Must Haves:

• Strong System Design Foundations: You understand how to architect distributed, scalable, and highly available systems.
• Backend & API Engineering: Strong foundation in software engineering and clean API development (REST, gRPC), with a proven track record of controlling infrastructure. Flexible across languages and actively open to writing and adopting Golang.
• Continuous Learning Mindset: You are genuinely excited to master our tech stack, dive deep into golang, Kubernetes and database internals, and constantly upgrade your technical skills.
