About the role

Staff Software Engineer role on the Core Infrastructure team responsible for designing, building, and scaling Harvey’s multi-cloud infrastructure (Azure, GCP) with a focus on reliability, observability, and operational excellence to support a scalable AI platform.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build scalable, fault-tolerant infrastructure systems that power Harvey's AI platform across multiple cloud regions
  • Own and evolve our multi-cloud infrastructure (Azure, GCP), including Kubernetes orchestration, networking, and container management
  • Lead technical initiatives around observability, incident response, and operational excellence — building systems that enable rapid detection and resolution of issues
  • Architect and optimize our distributed systems for reliability, including load balancing, quota management, and failover mechanisms
  • Partner with Product Engineering and Security teams to ensure our infrastructure is an accelerant, not a constraint
  • Drive infrastructure-as-code practices using tools like Terraform and Pulumi to enable reproducible, auditable deployments
  • Mentor engineers and raise the technical bar across the organization through code reviews, design reviews, and technical leadership

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in Infrastructure Engineering or Platform Engineering in a production environment
  • Long track record building and scaling complex, large-scale distributed systems

  • Strong fluency in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools — Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation
  • Solid understanding of Kubernetes, container orchestration, networking, and cloud security at scale
  • Experience with observability tools (Datadog, Sentry) and incident response practices (PagerDuty, Incident.io)
  • Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar languages
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, a "spidey sense" of where things could go wrong, and a commitment to operational excellence
