Senior Software Engineer, Platform

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and operate services and infrastructure that make up SnapLogic's control plane
• Take end-to-end ownership: from design through production rollout and monitoring
• Improve platform reliability, performance, and scalability — across services, data layer, and dependencies
• Investigate and resolve production issues, then turn the fix into a durable improvement (better tests, observability, automation, or design changes)
• Contribute to our data-layer work as needed: query and index tuning, schema/access pattern reviews, shard and cluster operations, capacity planning
• Partner with other Platform engineers, SRE, and application teams to keep us on our zero-downtime SLA
• Raise the bar on engineering quality — code review, design review, mentoring peers

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years building and operating production backend systems
• Strong programming fundamentals, ideally in Java or Python; comfort picking up new languages and stacks
• Experience operating distributed systems in production — debugging, profiling, capacity planning, incident response
• Track record of taking features from design to production and owning them after launch
• Solid grasp of databases (relational or NoSQL): query performance, indexing, schema design trade-offs
• Excellent design, code, and written communication skills
• B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Preferred Experience

• Hands-on experience operating MongoDB (or another NoSQL database) at scale — sharding, replica sets, query profiling, index tuning
• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), containers, and CI/CD
• Familiarity with observability tooling (metrics, tracing, structured logs) and SRE practices
