About the role

Platform Engineer responsible for availability, performance, and scalability of Augur's critical systems, bridging software development and IT operations with a software-engineering mindset.

Responsibilities

  • System Architecture and Design: Design, build, and maintain the core infrastructure that runs our platforms. Develop scalable, secure and highly reliable systems to support our services.
  • Automation and Tooling: Automate manual operational tasks, including deployment, monitoring, and incident response. Develop and maintain tools to improve efficiency and reduce the potential for human error.
  • Software Development: Write and review code (Ansible, Terraform, Python) for infrastructure automation, monitoring tools, and system improvements. Contribute to the development lifecycle to ensure reliability is built into our products from the start.
  • Performance and Reliability: Proactively monitor system performance, identify bottlenecks, and implement solutions to ensure high availability and low latency. Fill in the gaps in monitoring systems when observed.
  • Incident Management: Participate in an on-call rotation to respond to production incidents. Lead incident response, conduct root cause analysis (RCA), and implement preventative measures to avoid future occurrences.
  • Capacity Planning: Analyse system usage, cost and performance data to make informed decisions about resource allocation. Forecast future infrastructure needs and scale our systems accordingly.
  • Collaboration and Best Practices: Work closely with software development teams to promote reliability best practices. Champion a culture of reliability across the engineering organisation.
  • Documentation and Knowledge Sharing: Maintain comprehensive, up-to-date documentation for all systems, processes, and operational procedures as a core part of everyday work. Treat documentation as a first-class engineering deliverable.
