Job description
Inngest is solving long standing developer problems related to queueing, event-driven systems, and step functions in a novel way — which means we’re creating first-of-it’s-kind solutions.

Infrastructure engineering is a critical part of Inngest. It involves everything from K8S, terraform, and ansible playbooks (for bare metal) to developing high-throughput datastores to serve function state, with o11y and alerting as standard. This means that you'll need to know how to write code (Golang) as well as how to manage infrastructure.

This is a senior level role, so we require at least 5 years of experience. This role requires working time overlap with US PST. Ideally, you'd live in the SF Bay Area, but for strong candidates you may live anywhere in the United States.

What you'll do

Collaborate with other engineers to architect core systems for Inngest, including message streams, real-time connectivity to external clients, consistent hashing caches, etc.

Collaborate with systems engineers to help develop our execution engine, state store, etc. (in Go)

Develop internal tooling (in Go) to manage our systems

Provision and monitor systems on public clouds, bare metal, and, in the future, our own hardware.

Ensure our systems are up to date and secure

Ideal candidate

You acted as technical lead, owning the discovery, architecture design, planning, and execution of complex projects

You understand how systems scale, how they should be monitored, and how to deliver and implement such systems

You are able to identify business priorities and anticipate pitfalls and risks

You are passionate about engineering and you choose pragmatism at work

You have deep understanding of modern applications design architecture, good API design patterns, performance and scale

You've previously worked in a strong engineering environment as a systems or infrastructure engineer

Bonus points

5+ years experience as a software engineer

Experience with Clickhouse, Kafka/NATS, Terraform, Ansible

Experience with bare metal

Experience with FoundationDB

Experience operating blobstores, eg. Ceph, or SeaweedFS

Experience with Anycast/BGP

What your first 90 days will look like

First week: You’ll learn how we work as a team and our approach to growth. You’ll also start to learn our system architecture, how we provision and access our infrastructure, and how we monitor our systems

By day 30: You’ll be proficient with our weekly cadence of work and you’ll have contributed a new feature to our architecture. You’ll fully understand our company, product, and growth strategy and start to build up context for your product mindset.

By day 90: You’ll have shipped significant changes to our product and ysstems that you have created the spec for. You’ll have actively participated in the discussions about the future of our infrastructure architecture at Inngest. You’ll have contributed ideas around product and growth. We’re all aligned and mutually excited about how we work together now and in the future!

Backend: Go

Infrastructure: Kafka/NATS, Clickhouse, Postgres, Redis, and FoundationDB

Automation: Terraform, Terragrunt, Ansible

Github, Linear, Slack, Notion, Figma
