  • Experience designing or contributing to load testing, fault injection, chaos engineering, or developer productivity infrastructure in a distributed systems environment.
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems fundamentals, including service failures and designing experiments.
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes and container-based infrastructure.
  • A builder's approach to developer tooling, focusing on ergonomics and adoption.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain load testing and fault injection infrastructure for engineering teams.
  • Own platform components end-to-end, from architecture and implementation to testing and deployment.
  • Collaborate with infrastructure and product engineering teams to understand their resilience testing needs.
  • Contribute to defining steady-state hypotheses and fault injection primitives for chaos experiments.
  • Write clean, well-tested code and participate in technical design discussions.
