Senior Software Engineer – Cluster Cloud

Who we are

Join the Redis Cloud Unit and help power one of the fastest NoSQL platforms on the planet. As part of this high-impact team, you’ll work on the cloud deployment of Redis, supporting over 200 million operations per second at sub-millisecond latency, with true linear scalability.

This role plays a critical part in our cloud offering. You’ll own and enhance the component that orchestrates the maintenance of our customers’ production Redis clusters. Your focus will be on automating complex operational processes used by both our customers and the Redis Cloud Operations Team, ensuring reliability, scalability, and seamless execution.

Success in this role means being:

• Passionate about cloud infrastructure, performance, and distributed computing
• Eager to learn, improve, and grow in a fast-paced environment
• A strong collaborator who thrives in a diverse, ambitious team
• A proactive problem-solver with a hands-on mindset

Make an impact in a company that’s scaling fast and backed by a proven product. If you’re excited by cloud challenges and want to be part of something big, this is your opportunity.

What you’ll do:

• Work on the evolution of a production system at the very heart of Redis Cloud from a monolith to modular, cloud-native services
• Build and maintain internal systems that orchestrate cluster lifecycle operations (create, upgrade, recover, delete)
• Design and build for production-grade reliability, including observability, self-healing, and fault-tolerant behavior
• Collaborate with infrastructure, platform, and SRE teams to improve automation workflows
• Contribute to technical vision, architecture decisions, and engineering best practices
• Take end-to-end ownership of critical backend components used by internal and external customers

What will you need to have?

• 7+ years of backend development experience, preferably in Python or similar technology.
• Proficiency in designing and building stable, robust, large-scale cloud systems.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems.
• Experience with microservices and RESTful API design.
• Experience with event-driven architecture and asynchronous workflows.
• A high level of autonomy, ownership, and communication in cross-team projects.
