Job description

We build and operate a fully-automated Speech Analytics SaaS platform that runs on Kubernetes across AWS and GCP. Our infrastructure processes roughly 160,000 hours of audio per month with a 99%+ uptime SLA, serving enterprise customers who rely on mission-critical analytics. About the Platform

The platform is built on modern, cloud-native technologies: Kubernetes, the Argo ecosystem, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, and 100% Terraform-driven infrastructure. It auto-scales from dozens to more than 1,000 Kubernetes nodes based on demand. In addition to the core SaaS product, we deliver managed solutions (Autopilot and Copilot) and create AI-based services packaged as containerized, Terraform-ready modules for seamless integration into customer cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure)., * Design, build, and maintain multi-cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP.

  • Operate and optimize Kubernetes clusters (GKE, EKS) at scale (up to ~1 000 nodes).
  • Lead infrastructure modernization and cloud-migration initiatives.
  • Implement cost-optimization strategies across cloud providers.
  • Manage Argo Workflows and ArgoCD for GitOps-based deployments.
  • Build and maintain end-to-end Infrastructure as Code with Terraform (modular, reusable, multi-cloud).
  • Develop internal automation tooling and scripts in Python, Bash, and Go.
  • Implement zero-downtime deployment strategies.
  • Deploy and manage production MongoDB, ElasticSearch, and other core services.
  • Package and deploy workloads using Helm, Docker, and GitOps pipelines.
  • Ensure 99%+ uptime through robust monitoring, incident response, and observability.
  • Support delivery of AI containerized solutions ready for customer environments.
  • Build comprehensive observability across all platform components.
  • Implement security best practices and compliance requirements.
  • Drive post-incident reviews and continuous improvement.
