This is a high-autonomy role that will help shape the future of Synctera’s platform and will work directly across a broad swath of product and engineering, being an escalation point for infrastructure questions and other topics that span across teams.

  • Design, enhance, and maintain Synctera's Google Cloud and CI/CD infrastructure
  • Develop services and utilities in Go
  • Solve engineering problems as part of a small team
  • Work across engineering teams to build top-tier platform tooling and enhance the developer experience
  • Participate in an on-call rotation to ensure platform stability
  • Identify and implement cleaner, more efficient solutions to technical problems.
  • Advocate for modern infrastructure and development best practices, fostering knowledge-sharing across the team

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience with Go or a comparable structured and opinionated language
  • Extensive experience with Kubernetes and related cloud-native technologies like Argo and Istio
  • Experience with monitoring and alerting platform tools such as Prometheus, Alertmanager & Grafana
  • Experience with Terraform or similar infrastructure-as-code tooling
  • Experience with at least one major cloud provider, preferably Google Cloud

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Python / GitLab APIs / Google Cloud APIs / Postgres
  • Familiarity with security compliance frameworks (PCI, SOC 2, SOC 1)
  • Experience being a part of early-stage, fast-moving engineering teams

Our Stack

Our platform is built in Go (for backend services) and React with Typescript (for the Synctera Console, our frontend). We’re built on top of Google Cloud Platform and typically use Postgres (Cloud SQL, AlloyDB), Redis (Cloud Memorystore), and Pub/Sub as our core application stack, with OpenAPI specifications being used to both document our API and be the foundation for inter-service communication.

Our infrastructure is predominantly a mixture of Kubernetes (Google Kubernetes Engine) and Cloud Run (Google’s serverless compute platform), with Terraform orchestrating infrastructure, and tools like Argo facilitating deployments.

Synctera is committed to having a workforce that is reflective of the diversity within the United States and Canada. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage applications from candidates from underrepresented communities, Indigenous persons, persons with disabilities, persons of diverse sexual orientation and gender identity, and all those who can provide different perspectives and contribute to the diversification of Synctera.

As a student navigating the job market, I've found LinkedIn increasingly frustrating due to numerous fake postings by consultancies. In contrast, this job posting website has been a game-changer for me. It offers genuine opportunities and a straightforward application process, making it much easier to find and apply for real jobs. Highly recommend it to fellow students seeking reliable job listings!

Echo Jobs has been exceptional in my job hunt where it provides one platform to job hunt and I don't have to open 10 websites just to look for a job. It has also helped me focus much on the job skill and the location filtering out the onsite jobs and remote ones. The only feature that I would request is to display fully remote jobs that are not restricted to a country since the one available shows ie, Remote, US yet. But if it could show remote only, that would be helpful not only to me but to other people applying for full remote and not tied to only US candidates

I found EchoJobs in 2022, and I love it. It has a lot of remote jobs. It's exclusive to software and technology jobs (helpful for devs like me). What I like the most are its filters and its API. If you're a tech professional seeking remote work, I highly recommend giving it a try to EchoJobs.

Simply put, it's the most up to date tech jobs aggregator I’ve found. I'm like... "I don't have to check 10+ jobs boards daily just to see if there's a new job listing? sign me up!" The filters are also quite helpful! The UI is very clean and straightforward. Love it!
