Infrastructure engineers build the platform that support our ever-increasing scale of data collection.

Sample projects include:

 * building an orchestration system to run computations upon data ingestion
 * designing an internal dev platform for researchers to test their ideas over the dataset
 * managing a multi-tenant data lake
