Role Tasks
Architect, build, and operate the core cloud‑native infrastructure for WunderGraph Cosmo and Hub, primarily using Go and Kubernetes.
Own and evolve our observability stack (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, ClickHouse) and the infrastructure supporting our AI‑driven features to ensure deep, actionable insights into our systems.
Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines to improve build times, automate quality and security gates, and create a seamless path to production for our engineers.
Champion and implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) best practices using tools like Terraform, building reusable and maintainable modules for our teams.
Embed security best practices into the platform by designing and implementing network policies, RBAC, and automated checks to meet enterprise and SOC 2 compliance standards.
Mentor other engineers, provide insightful code and design reviews, and document platform features and architectural decisions to foster a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Terraform , Pulumi).
A strong understanding of system architecture, distributed systems, and the challenges of running high‑performance API gateways. Familiarity with
GraphQL Federation
is a significant plus.
Experience building or managing modern observability stacks (e.g., OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, ClickHouse).
