Agora Finance

Role Description We're looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to design and build Agora's internal platform that empowers product teams to ship software with confidence, reliability, and speed. This role brings a Software Engineering mindset to infrastructure: - Building reusable abstractions, internal services, developer tooling, and infrastructure primitives that reduce cognitive load for application teams and the Infrastructure team itself. - Owning core platform components such as our TypeScript Pulumi codebase, Kubernetes-based runtime environments, and monitoring stack. - Focusing on architecting scalable systems, enforcing engineering standards through code, and continuously improving developer experience through well-engineered platform capabilities. We value real-time collaboration and prefer candidates located close to Eastern Time, while welcoming exceptional engineers across Pacific Time through GMT. Regardless of where you are located, your working hours will need to have a majority overlap with ET business hours. Qualifications - 5+ years of professional Software Engineering experience, including substantial work in Infrastructure and Cloud domains. - Strong programming skills in TypeScript or another strictly typed language. - Strong understanding of distributed systems fundamentals (availability, consistency, observability, fault tolerance). - Experience designing and maintaining infrastructure-as-code systems. - Deep understanding of AWS architecture. - Experience designing, operating, and scaling Kubernetes workloads. - Proven ability to build reusable systems and abstractions rather than one-off scripts. Requirements - Experience defining SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and building incident tooling. - Experience improving Observability practices, defining alerts, operational dashboards and business metrics. - Familiarity with GitOps patterns and deployment automation technologies. - Expertise in DevEx or Developer Productivity. - Experience building Internal Development Platforms with focus on self-service and golden paths. - Experience in maintenance and operations of production-grade systems and on-call rotations. Benefits - Agora operates a centralized USD-pegged stablecoin platform with robust compliance, security, and governance. - We are equally committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace.
