Responsibilities

At Astronomer, we’re redefining how companies run Apache Airflow at scale. Our R&D organization is home to some of the most innovative minds in cloud infrastructure and open-source software. We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Platform Engineering team. You get to go in at the ground level of how our production infrastructure is designed, built, tested and deployed. Your work will directly influence how we build Astro, Observe and our IDE product, as well as how global organizations orchestrate data pipelines at scale—making them faster, more reliable, and easier to manage. If you’re driven by impact, excited by scale, and ready to work on the kind of infrastructure challenges that push the boundaries of what’s possible in cloud-native systems, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
What you get to do:
Make high-quality, data-driven and experience-driven decisions on how we build this and the next generation of our production platform, then deliver the results.
Own and build how we test, build and deploy code in a high-scale PaaS environment.
Collaborate across the whole company on how we design production systems, set standards and make technology choices for new and existing products, and how these fit together.
Deliver results - we routinely “change the wheels on the bus while it’s moving”, in a predictable, safe and reliable way.
Be at the forefront of how we work together as a Platform Engineering team.
Blaze a Trail: Work on a small but growing team on building out the Platform/Reliability practice for the company
Be an Owner: Be directly involved in decision-making on what we work on, as well as how we work on it. Make promises, and keep them.
Do Sensible Things: Be directly involved in determining how our platform works. Participate in incident management and determine sensible practices as the platform evolves.
Garage Door Open: Create and maintain comprehensive internal documentation for systems and processes, ensuring clarity and accessibility.
