About the role
Job Description:
Job Overview
We are looking for a Staff Infrastructure Engineer to improve the end-to-end production workflow from a business perspective. You will identify the bottlenecks that slow delivery, increase cost, or hurt quality, and lead cross-team engineering changes to resolve them.
What You Will Own
Map the production workflow from business demand through data processing to delivery; use operational data and frontline feedback to identify delays, rework, resource constraints, and gaps in ownership.
Prioritize improvements by business impact, effort, and dependencies; align teams on outcomes, responsibilities, and delivery milestones.
Lead changes across infrastructure, services, tooling, and working practices, partnering with product, data, research, and operations teams through implementation and adoption.
Establish baselines for delivery lead time, throughput, quality, and unit cost; verify end-to-end gains and turn successful changes into reusable capabilities.
What We Look For
Strong software engineering and architecture skills, with experience owning production systems and driving improvements across multiple services or teams.
Exceptional cross-team communication and leadership: you can reconcile conflicting goals, clarify ownership, build consensus without direct authority, and keep joint work moving through completion.
Strong product sense and business judgment: you understand how technical constraints affect delivery and can identify the problem worth solving first.
Ability to navigate ambiguity, combine quantitative evidence with user feedback, and distinguish symptoms from root causes across technical and organizational boundaries.
Hands-on ability to design and implement practical solutions, with clear technical taste and attention to adoption. Experience improving complex data production workflows or leading cross-team platform changes is a plus.
What We Would Like to See When You Apply
We encourage a resume beyond a traditional career timeline. Describe a production workflow improvement you led: the business pain point, how you found the bottleneck, how you aligned teams, what changed, and the measurable outcome.
Important: Your resume MUST include the exact word “Maxinsights”. Applications without it will be automatically filtered out by our internal agent.
Default Benefits:
Health insurance
Vision care
Dental coverage
401(k)
Paid holidays
PTO (Paid Time Off)
Sick leave
