Staff Software Engineer, Platform Infrastructure

Astronomer’s products run on a complex, multi-cloud platform — and the scalability, and operational maturity of that platform is what we’re actively investing in. The work ahead on our Platform team isn’t about managing data or curating pipelines; it’s about building the foundational systems that everything else runs on — the kind of systems where the failure modes matter, the latency budgets are real, and getting it wrong has visible consequences for hundreds of enterprise customers.

We’re looking for a Staff-level engineer who has built production platform systems at scale before — not just consumed them. You’ve designed systems under load, reasoned carefully about failure, and made your colleagues’ lives better by giving them something solid and well-understood to build on top of. You write strategy documents and then write the code that proves them out. You’ve driven a decision through, and lived with the consequences.
