## About the role

Medal's infrastructure handles billions of clips, video ingestion pipelines, and social features at a massive scale most engineers never get to touch. The work centers on reliability, incident response, scaling, and making sure our infrastructure keeps up with our growth. You'll own the on-call rotation, drive postmortems, and work directly with engineering teams to meet their infra needs.

## What they're looking for

- Infrastructure-as-code: Strong fluency in Terraform, with real experience owning infrastructure-as-code at scale
- Elasticsearch depth: Hands-on experience running ES for user-facing features, not just as a log sink
- GCP depth: You know it maybe a little too well: Kubernetes, VPC, IAM, Cloud Logging, and the managed services ecosystem
- Database scaling: Deep, hands-on experience scaling and sharding relational databases (MySQL, Postgres) in production
- Incident response instincts: You can work a P0 calmly, communicate clearly under pressure, and run a postmortem that prevents recurrence
- CI/CD: You've worked with GitHub Actions in a production environment
