About the role
Polymarket is looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to help build, scale, and operate the platform that our exchange and product engineering teams run on. This role is focused on the systems underneath the systems — Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, and reliability — that let our engineers ship fast without breaking things.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of professional infrastructure/platform/DevOps engineering experience, ideally at a large-scale company with high-traffic, production systems
- Deep hands-on experience with Kubernetes and Docker in production — cluster operations, workload orchestration, and container lifecycle management
- Strong software engineering fundamentals — able to write production-grade code (Go, Python, or similar), not just configuration and scripts
- Solid experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS or GCP), including networking, IAM, compute, and storage
- Experience with infrastructure-as-code tooling (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar) and CI/CD systems
- Comfortable debugging complex, distributed production systems on Linux and taking ownership of correctness, performance, and uptime
