This description is a summary of our understanding of the job description. Click on 'Apply' button to find out more. Role Description You'll work directly on the systems that keep our messaging infrastructure running — and have real ownership over making them better. - Own the reliability and performance of our messaging infrastructure across every protocol we support. - Know systems better than anyone and stay ahead of the problems before they become outages. - Dig deep into messaging protocols (iMessage, RCS, SMS) and become the expert on how they behave at scale. - Build and run load tests, understand rate limits by protocol, and engineer around them. - Design fallback systems so messages always get delivered. - Monitor and get ahead of infrastructure issues — expired certs, degraded performance, protocol changes. - Work closely with the engineering team to improve deliverability across the platform. Qualifications - Get satisfaction from things working reliably, not just working once. - Have experience with distributed systems, infrastructure, or DevOps at a real scale. - Prefer to fix the root cause, not the symptom. - Can hold the full context of a complex system in your head and reason about edge cases. Requirements - Experience with messaging protocols (SMS/MMS gateways, RCS, iMessage/APNs) or telecom infrastructure. - Background in load testing, capacity planning, or site reliability. - Familiarity with AWS, Docker, monitoring/alerting tools (Grafana, Datadog, PagerDuty, etc.). - Experience at a startup or high-growth company. Benefits - Health/Dental/Vision insurance. - Flexible PTO. - 401(k). - Wellness stipend, book stipend, professional development opportunities. - Direct access to engineering leadership - we're a small team solving real problems with no layers of bureaucracy between you and the work. - Experience Birmingham, AL — affordable living, incredible food, and rising tech scene (remote welcome too).
