About the Role
We are seeking an exceptional Principal Software Engineer to provide technical leadership, architectural vision, and team mentorship for our core engineering group. In this role, you will be the primary architect and public face of a cloud-agnostic software platform that helps enterprise customers provision, scale, and orchestrate Apache Airflow instances completely on-premises within their own environments.
This is a unique infrastructure challenge: our platform is designed to be completely self-contained, operating without reliance on an external SaaS backbone or mandatory outbound communication. Both our control plane and data planes deploy locally inside the customer’s infrastructure. You will lead the engineering team in defining, designing, and building these systems to function reliably across a spectrum of enterprise network setups—ranging from standard customer-managed clouds to strictly isolated, air-gapped environments.
What You'll Do
Define, Design, and Build Core Architecture: Own the end-to-end definition, design, and implementation of both the control plane and data plane services, creating highly resilient inter-connections between them to power this self-contained infrastructure platform.
Architect an Extensible Platform API: Drive the design, data modeling, versioning, and long-term backward compatibility of robust APIs (such as REST or gRPC). These APIs serve as the core platform engine that power the customer-facing UI, and the developer endpoints for customer-facing programmatic integrations.
Design Comprehensive Platform Observability: Architect the telemetry framework (metrics, logs, and traces) for the self-contained platform itself, ensuring deep visibility into both the core control plane services and the performance, health, and status of the underlying Airflow instances it provisions.
Architect for Varied Isolation Levels: Oversee the architecture of a self-contained software platform, ensuring all services, images, dependencies, and configurations can run smoothly whether deployed in connected private clouds or highly secure, zero-egress networks.
Provide Technical Leadership: Act as the technical face of the team, translating complex enterprise infrastructure needs into execution roadmaps while aligning closely with product management and executive stakeholders.
Mentor and Elevate: Foster a culture of engineering and operational excellence through comprehensive design reviews, high-leverage code contributions, and direct career mentorship for senior engineers.
What You'll Bring
Extensive Infrastructure Experience: 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a significant track record operating at a Staff, Senior Staff, or Principal level within an enterprise infrastructure, database-as-a-service (DBaaS), or private cloud organization.
Control Plane & API Productization: Proven success building production-grade infrastructure control planes, with a deep understanding of API design principles required to support programmatic customer workflows and user interfaces.
Cloud-Native Observability Expertise: Practical experience designing and implementing infrastructure observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Grafana) to capture, aggregate, and surface system health and workflow data within isolated environments.
Strong Kubernetes Foundation: Solid operational knowledge and architectural understanding of container orchestration platforms, specifically Kubernetes. You have practical experience building custom Kubernetes Operators (CRDs), managing Helm deployments, and working with the Kubernetes API to orchestrate application lifecycles.
Hybrid Cloud Architecture: Hands-on systems design expertise involving isolated environments across multiple public cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure), Red Hat OpenShift enterprise deployments, and bare-metal on-premise infrastructure.
Advanced Coding & Systems Design: Expert-level software development skills (e.g., Go, Python, TypeScript) with deep knowledge of distributed state stores (such as Etcd, Consul, or PostgreSQL), concurrency, and network security patterns.
Top-Notch Technical Communication: Exceptional oral and written communication skills with a proven ability to author crisp, high-density technical \"one-pagers\" and actionable RFCs. You can drive fast organizational alignment by distilling complex systems choices into brief, highly readable documents, presenting confidently to executive leadership, and engaging deeply with strategic enterprise clients to unearth their core infrastructure requirements.
The estimated total compensation for this role ranges from $277,000 - $390,000, along with an equity component and a comprehensive benefits package. This range is merely an estimate, and the width of the range reflects willingness to consider candidates with broad prior seniority. Actual compensation may deviate from this range based on skills, experience, and qualifications.

If you’re driven by impact, excited by scale, and ready to work on the kind of infrastructure challenges that push the boundaries of what’s possible in cloud-native systems, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU GET TO DO:\n\n - Make high-quality, data-driven and experience-driven decisions on how we build this and the next generation of our production platform, then deliver the results.\n \n - Own and build how we test, build and deploy code in a high-scale PaaS environment.\n \n - Collaborate across the whole company on how we design production systems, set standards and make technology choices for new and existing products, and how these fit together.\n \n - Deliver results - we routinely “change the wheels on the bus while it’s moving”, in a predictable, safe and reliable way.\n\n - Be at the forefront of how we work together as a Platform Engineering team.\n \n - Blaze a Trail: Work on a small but growing team on building out the Platform/Reliability practice for the company\n \n - Be an Owner: Be directly involved in decision-making on what we work on, as well as how we work on it. Make promises, and keep them.\n \n - Do Sensible Things: Be directly involved in determining how our platform works. Participate in incident management and determine sensible practices as the platform evolves.\n \n - Garage Door Open: Create and maintain comprehensive internal documentation for systems and processes, ensuring clarity and accessibility.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU BRING TO THE ROLE:\n\n - Strong experience in Non-Abstract Systems design https://sre.google/workbook/non-abstract-design/ and implementation.\n\n - Strong proficiency in Python, Golang and in-depth experience with Kubernetes (CKA or equivalent or greater).\n\n - Experience with observability principles and technologies, including SLI/SLO definition and tracking.\n\n - Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with experience in working with a globally distributed team in delivery.\n\n - A passion for reliability and operational excellence. A low tolerance for toil and other nonsense.\n\n - Ability to estimate the scope of work accurately and coordinate with stakeholders to address risks and ensure successful project delivery.\n\n - Experience with (and ideally strong opinions on) software development best practices, such as code review, testing, CI/CD, version control, automation and debugging.\n\n - Proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues, with a focus on ownership and accountability.\n\n\n\n\nBONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE:\n\n - Experience working on a SaaS/PaaS product across multiple cloud providers.\n\n - Experience with our particular tech stack components and technologies (deep breath): CircleCI, Chronosphere (Prometheus), Splunk, Bazel, Istio, Playwright, Karpenter, Github [Actions] …\n\n - Experience of the innards and quirks of AWS, GCP and (particularly) Azure.\n\n - Participated in an on-call rotation - this role involves periodic on-call for the services we own.\n\n - Experience with Apache Airflow.\n\n\n\nThe estimated total compensation for this role ranges from £107,000 - £150,000 based on leveling and geography, along with an equity component and a comprehensive benefits package. This range is merely an estimate; actual compensation may deviate from this range based on skills, experience, and qualifications.\n\nAt Astronomer, we value diversity.

Astronomer’s products run on a complex, multi-cloud platform — and the scalability, and operational maturity of that platform is what we’re actively investing in. The work ahead on our Platform team isn’t about managing data or curating pipelines; it’s about building the foundational systems that everything else runs on — the kind of systems where the failure modes matter, the latency budgets are real, and getting it wrong has visible consequences for hundreds of enterprise customers.
We’re looking for a Staff+-level engineer who has built production platform systems at scale before — not just consumed them. You’ve designed systems under load, reasoned carefully about failure, and made your colleagues’ lives better by giving them something solid and well-understood to build on top of. You write strategy documents and then write the code that proves them out. You’ve been the person who made the call, and lived with the consequences.
This is a foundational role at a consequential moment: your work will directly shape what Astronomer’s products — Astro, Observe, and our IDE — are capable of over the next several years.
Astronomer has a healthy and complex infrastructure estate spanning multiple cloud providers, a mix of managed and self-hosted systems, and an increasingly ambitious set of requirements as our products evolve. We have a clear sense of where we need to go; we need the right person to figure out how to get there and then go build it.
This is very much a technical role — you’ll be just as involved in building these systems as in specifying and designing them. We’re not looking for someone to write strategy documents; we’re looking for someone who writes the strategy and the code, and who has done exactly that before at scale.
Blaze a Trail: Own and develop our platform infrastructure strategy, with the sponsorship and responsibility to match. Map out what we need, make the calls, and own the outcomes.
Be an Owner: Be directly involved in deciding what we work on and how we work on it. Make promises, and keep them.
Do Sensible Things: Make principled build vs. buy assessments and advocate for the right tools for the right job — not the fashionable ones, not the ones already in the estate just because they’re there.
Garage Door Open: Create and maintain comprehensive internal documentation and decision records for systems and processes. Participate in architectural forums and make principled, open decisions that the rest of the organisation can learn from and hold us to.
Distributed systems depth, grounded in practice. You have a solid working model of how production systems fail — consistency and availability tradeoffs, failure cascades, backpressure, graceful degradation. You can draw the diagram, explain the failure modes at each node, and make a reasoned argument for which ones actually matter in a given context. NALSD thinking is how you naturally approach a new system design.
Kubernetes at operator depth. You know what happens inside the scheduler and the control loop when things go wrong, because you’ve been there. You’ve operated clusters under real load, not just deployed workloads onto them.
Strong Go proficiency. The platform team writes production Go. You should be fluent: you’ve built and shipped systems in it, and you have opinions about what good Go looks like.
Multi-cloud experience, not just multi-cloud exposure. You’ve made considered architectural decisions across AWS, GCP, and/or Azure — not just consumed managed services, but evaluated tradeoffs between them and lived with those decisions in production.
Experience defining requirements and driving technology choices across an engineering organization. You’ve been the person in the room who frames the decision correctly, not just the one who executes it.
Strong written and verbal communication. You can write a design doc that changes minds, and a postmortem that makes the organisation smarter. You’ve worked effectively in a globally-distributed team.
Experience with storage primitives at the system level — you’ve reasoned about when to reach for a relational store vs. an object store vs. something else, and you have real opinions informed by real failures.
Experience working on a SaaS/PaaS product across multiple cloud providers.
Familiarity with Apache Airflow or workflow orchestration systems.
The estimated total compensation for this role ranges from $215,000 - $315,000, along with an equity component and a comprehensive benefits package. This range is merely an estimate, and the width of the range reflects willingness to consider candidates with broad prior seniority. Actual compensation may deviate from this range based on skills, experience, and qualifications.

Experience defining requirements and driving technology choices across an engineering organization. You’ve been the person in the room who frames the decision correctly, not just the one who executes it.
Strong written and verbal communication. You can write a design doc that changes minds, and a postmortem that makes the organisation smarter. You’ve worked effectively in a globally-distributed team.

This range is merely an estimate, and the width of the range reflects willingness to consider candidates with broad prior seniority. Actual compensation may deviate from this range based on skills, experience, and qualifications.
Experience with storage primitives at the system level — you’ve reasoned about when to reach for a relational store vs. an object store vs. something else, and you have real opinions informed by real failures.
Experience working on a SaaS/PaaS product across multiple cloud providers.
Familiarity with Apache Airflow or workflow orchestration systems.

The work ahead on our Platform team isn’t about managing data or curating pipelines; it’s about building the foundational systems that everything else runs on — the kind of systems where the failure modes matter, the latency budgets are real, and getting it wrong has visible consequences for hundreds of enterprise customers.\n\n\n\nWe’re looking for a Staff+-level engineer who has built production platform systems at scale before — not just consumed them. You’ve designed systems under load, reasoned carefully about failure, and made your colleagues’ lives better by giving them something solid and well-understood to build on top of. You write strategy documents and then write the code that proves them out. You’ve been the person who made the call, and lived with the consequences.\n\n\n\nThis is a foundational role at a consequential moment: your work will directly shape what Astronomer’s products — Astro, Observe, and our IDE — are capable of over the next several years.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU GET TO DO\n\nAstronomer has a healthy and complex infrastructure estate spanning multiple cloud providers, a mix of managed and self-hosted systems, and an increasingly ambitious set of requirements as our products evolve. We have a clear sense of where we need to go; we need the right person to figure out how to get there and then go build it.\n\n\n\nThis is very much a technical role — you’ll be just as involved in building these systems as in specifying and designing them. We’re not looking for someone to write strategy documents; we’re looking for someone who writes the strategy and the code, and who has done exactly that before at scale.\n\n\n\n - Blaze a Trail: Own and develop our platform infrastructure strategy, with the sponsorship and responsibility to match. Map out what we need, make the calls, and own the outcomes.\n\n - Be an Owner: Be directly involved in deciding what we work on and how we work on it.

Blaze a Trail: Work on a small but growing team on building out the Platform/Reliability practice for the company
Be an Owner: Be directly involved in decision-making on what we work on, as well as how we work on it. Make promises, and keep them.
Do Sensible Things: Be directly involved in determining how our platform works. Participate in incident management and determine sensible practices as the platform evolves.
Garage Door Open: Create and maintain comprehensive internal documentation for systems and processes, ensuring clarity and accessibility.
Strong experience in Non-Abstract Systems design and implementation.
Strong proficiency in Python, Golang and in-depth experience with Kubernetes (CKA or equivalent or greater).
Experience with observability principles and technologies, including SLI/SLO definition and tracking.
Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with experience in working with a globally distributed team in delivery.
A passion for reliability and operational excellence. A low tolerance for toil and other nonsense.
Ability to estimate the scope of work accurately and coordinate with stakeholders to address risks and ensure successful project delivery.
Experience with (and ideally strong opinions on) software development best practices, such as code review, testing, CI/CD, version control, automation and debugging.
Proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues, with a focus on ownership and accountability.
Experience working on a SaaS/PaaS product across multiple cloud providers.
Experience with our particular tech stack components and technologies (deep breath): CircleCI, Chronosphere (Prometheus), Splunk, Bazel, Istio, Playwright, Karpenter, Github [Actions] …
Experience of the innards and quirks of AWS, GCP and (particularly) Azure.
Participated in an on-call rotation - this role involves periodic on-call for the services we own.
Experience with Apache Airflow.
