DevOps CI/CD Engineer – Remote

Who we are

The client is a major shake-up to the cloud data warehouse space.

So far they have built the fastest, most scalable, and most hardware
efficient cloud data warehouse in the market, by far, and have helped
some of the most data-forward companies in the world with their
biggest data challenges. But this is just the beginning.

They are a strong team of world-class data experts, led by ex-founders

from Sisense and Looker. With $164M of recent funding by top VCs, we
are poised to grow quickly and change how we work with data and what
can be done with data.

About the tech stack

The client is composed of several open-source projects and relies on a

unique IP that boosts data analytics and enables full scalability and
decoupling compute from storage.

We have Terraform as part of the application, dynamically provision

AWS accounts, network infrastructure and workloads in reaction to
clients activity. The infrastructure is managed as code with
Terraform/Kops/Helm and services are monitored using Prometheus
Thanos Grafana and Loki.

CI/CD is handled by a combination of CircleCI and ArgoCD in GitOps

fashion to test and deploy code to production.

They are pushing to run everything on Kubernetes, stateless and

stateful workload. We love CRDs and operators, and we also develop
our own.

The SQL core teams work with C++. Our backend teams work with Go,
Python, Rust in order to create gRPC microservices exposing REST APIs
and GraphQL interface. We are using CockroachDB, FoundationDB,
Temporal and Kafka as application infrastructure. Our frontend teams
work with TypeScript, React, Redux + Apollo.
