- Maintain best practices and tests to ensure enhanced stability and decreased deployment risks.

- co-owning the integration of OrioleDB into the supabase product

YOU MIGHT BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU

- Are an Infrastructure Expert with proven experience in management, tooling, and optimization.

- Are proficient in the Nix package management system (including flakes) alongside Ansible, Packer, Docker, QEMU/KVM, AWS, and Kubernetes.

- Have experience building for multiple architectures, specifically Linux and Darwin/macOS aarch64 targets.

- Are comfortable with polyglot environments, including builds for C/C++, Go, JavaScript, and Rust-based projects.

- Communicate clearly across both technical and non-technical audiences, especially when interacting with customers.

- Have experience in async or globally distributed teams and value independent, proactive problem-solving.
