Singapore Myguysnow Full time

Ahrefs is looking for a backend developer with a deep understanding of distributed systems, OS fundamentals, reliability, networks, and a taste for simple and efficient architectural designs. Our backend is mostly implemented in OCaml with some D and C++, we use Puppet and OCaml for infrastructure as code, and we run on baremetal servers without any clouds (and we setup our datacenter halls ourselves).
Our SRE team is focused on making operations and infrastructure definition simpler, easier to understand and maintain, making it more reliable, more secure, more performant, and more observable. We do this by building better internal developer and devops tools, analyzing system requirements, and automating everything, improving the infrastructure foundation for the development teams to build upon.
In this role, be prepared to deal with 400+ petabytes of storage, OCaml, and Linux on a daily basis (and CPU bugs occasionally).
This role is ideal for a SRE with a backend engineering background or a backend engineer who has an interest in SRE.
Technologies
Puppet (understand concepts, read and integrate with existing puppet code)
Distributed systems (everything is distributed here)
Modern C++ (investigating issues in external C++ codebases)
Linux kernel code (tracking down performance regressions, debugging, etc)
Clickhouse
OpenTelemetry
No cloud
The ideal candidate is expected to:
Build monitoring and operations tools for developers
Build configuration as code tooling and use this tooling to setup infrastructure for product development needs
Work with the wider engineering team to understand what improvements are required
Take care of the large heterogeneous production infrastructure under high load
Perform system and infrastructure analysis to understand performance, security, and reliability improvements through the stack and coordinate with other engineering teams to implement them
Who we are
We are a small team that strongly believes that better technology leads to better solutions for real-world problems. We worship functional languages and static typing, extensively employ code generation and meta-programming, value code clarity and predictability, and constantly seek to automate repetitive tasks and eliminate boilerplate.
We are guided by DRY and follow KISS. If there is new technology that will make our life easier, we'll give it a try. We rely heavily on open-source code (as the only viable way to build maintainable systems) and contribute back. We occasionally blog on tech.ahrefs.com.
Our motto is first do it, then do it right, then do it better.
