As a Senior Platform Engineer at Brevo, you are a systems architect who treats infrastructure as software. Your goal is to build a resilient, self-service data platform that allows our engineering teams to ship faster without worrying about the underlying storage complexities. You will bridge the gap between deep Linux internals and high-level automation.
Your Impact at Brevo:
- Own the delivery and lifecycle management of data-storage platforms, ensuring they meet product requirements for performance, reliability, security, and scale.
- Bring a product mindset by balancing user needs, operational excellence, and long-term sustainability.
- Architect, implement, and automate data-storage infrastructure (e.g., SQL, NoSQL, object, and file storage) using infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management tools such as Terraform and Ansible.
- Drive platform reliability and resilience, including installation, configuration, parameter tuning, observability, and continuous performance optimisation for all supported data engines.
- Develop, evolve, and enforce robust backup, disaster recovery, and business-continuity strategies, ensuring data durability and compliance with internal and external standards.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and security teams to understand workload characteristics, define SLOs/SLAs, and deliver platform capabilities that accelerate product development.
- Lead automation initiatives across storage-related CI/CD and operational workflows, reducing manual overhead, improving consistency, and increasing delivery velocity.
- Work on production issues, perform deep root-cause analysis, and drive long-term fixes and systemic improvements across the platform.
- Produce and maintain high-quality documentation of architectures, operational procedures, standards, and best practices to ensure platform transparency and reproducibility.
Who you are:
- You have 6-9 years of relevant experience.
- Must have expert-level Linux systems engineering knowledge with a deep understanding to operate mission-critical services.
- Must have deep hands-on and operational expertise in multiple data engines such as PostgreSQL/MongoDB/ClickHouse/Minio/Ceph
- Must own the full lifecycle of Architecture design, Replication & clustering strategies, Performance benchmarking, Live production scaling & Capacity planning.
- Must have handled corruption scenarios, replication failures, and real data recovery events.
- Must have built automation platforms, not just one-off scripts using Terraform, Ansible (or equivalents), writing modular, reusable automation frameworks that actively eliminate operational toil.
- Must have strong coding capability (Bash, Python, or similar) — clean, maintainable, production-grade code.
- Must have performed advanced distributed systems debugging with a deep understanding of distributed systems failure modes such as Split-brain, Replication lag, Quorum failures, Network partitions, etc
- Must be comfortable serving as the primary responder for high-severity incidents or alerts.
- Must be experienced in designing meaningful alerts (not noise-driven monitoring)—deep familiarity with observability stacks and performance metrics interpretation.
- Bias toward measurable reliability, not reactive firefighting.
- Must think in terms of building internal storage platforms — not just managing databases such that it is designed for Self-service, Standardization, API-driven provisioning, Guardrails & Multi-team enablement
