About the role

Build the shared infrastructure that helps Higgsfield’s product teams ship quickly and run reliable services. You’ll own problems from finding the bottleneck to shipping a solution and supporting it in production.

Responsibilities

  • Build shared services for queues, job scheduling, caching, configuration, and service communication.
  • Improve concurrency limits, resource allocation, and recovery for long-running media workloads.
  • Make database access, migrations, and connection management safer and faster.
  • Simplify service setup, testing, deployment, and production debugging.
  • Improve observability, investigate incidents, and reduce infrastructure cost per completed job.
  • Work directly with product engineers, ship focused improvements, and measure the results. Our release cycle is days, not quarters.

Qualifications

  • Experience running production systems on Kubernetes (K8s) and AWS, including deployments, scaling, networking, and troubleshooting.
  • Strong software engineering skills: you build shared services, tools, and automation that other engineers use.
  • Experience with databases, queues, and distributed systems, including performance debugging, safe rollouts, and recovery.
  • A difficult production problem you owned from an unclear starting point to a working solution.
  • Ability to set priorities, make practical tradeoffs, remove blockers, and ask for help when needed.
  • Clear communication, openness to feedback, and knowledge sharing so others can operate and extend your work.
