At any given moment 10’s of thousands of servers are consuming 200+ billion mobile app events, crunching our users’ data, serving requests and communicating on a massive scale.
To handle this scale we practice modern production operations with a complete self-serve approach and develop our platform as a product. We run complicated systems at scale which we design, develop and deploy.
Day 0, Day 1, and Day 2 operations are critical components of a successful SaaS production system, ensuring its deployment, stability, and ongoing improvement.
The effective management of these operations requires highly skilled and dedicated teams, with a deep understanding of both the technology and the business needs it serves.

With more than 400 (and growing) engineers, hundreds of deployments per day for our 1000+ microservices on top of ten thousands of machines we manage on the cloud, we produce around a *petabyte* of data, daily. You’ll learn how to run systems at scale and the reality of dealing with hyper growth.
What do we believe in?
We believe that a Platform leader is someone who is passionate about their work, who possesses the technical skills to get things done and who has the vision to see beyond the horizon.
