About Bigstack
Bigstack builds next-generation cloud infrastructure platforms for enterprises and service providers.
Our product line is a end-to-end cloud solution integrating:
OpenStack (compute / networking / virtualization)Ceph (distributed storage)Rancher / Kubernetes / cloud-native technologies
We focus on building sovereign, carrier-grade, and production-ready cloud systems.
Role Summary
We are looking for a Junior Infrastructure Engineer to join our infrastructure team.
This role goes beyond traditional operations—you will:
Write system-level code (C++ / Bash / Makefile)Debug production (L3) issuesLearn how large-scale cloud platforms operate internally
You will work closely with experienced Tech Leads in a structured Agile environment.
Responsibilities
Infrastructure System Development
Support development and integration of:OpenStack services (compute, networking, storage)Ceph distributed storageLinux-based infrastructure componentsAssist in implementing system-level features and improvements
System-Level Programming
Write and maintain:C++ code (system utilities / performance-critical components)Bash scripts (automation, deployment, debugging)Makefile-based build systemsContribute to:system toolingdeployment / upgrade workflowsperformance optimization
Debugging Reliability
Investigate system-level issues in:networkingstoragecomputeAnalyze logs, system behavior, and failure scenariosSupport L3 (production) issue investigation with guidanceImprove system stability and reliability
Observability Monitoring
Use monitoring tools to:collect system metrics (CPU, memory, IO, network)analyze system performance and behaviorAssist in:setting up alerts for abnormal system behavioridentifying performance bottlenecksSupport debugging by:correlating logs, metrics, and system events
Collaboration Development Flow
Work closely with:Infra Tech LeadBackend engineers (Kubernetes / API / orchestration)Participate in:story refinement (define details edge cases)sprint developmentcross-domain feature integrationFollow our engineering model:PM defines problemTech Leads define solutionEngineers refine and implement collaboratively
L3 On-Call (with Mentorship)
Participate in weekly L3 rotationResponsibilities during on-call:first response and triageinitial debuggingescalate to domain experts when needed
What You Will Learn
OpenStack internals (Nova, Neutron, etc.)Ceph architecture (RBD, cluster behavior)Linux system internals (process, IO, networking)System-level programming and debuggingObservability practices (metrics, logging, alerting)How to diagnose real production issues in complex systemsHow to build and operate a cloud platform
Working Style
Agile / Scrum-based developmentCollaborative refinement (PM + Tech Leads + engineers)Strong mentorship from Infra Tech LeadCombination of:codingdebuggingsystem analysisReal production system exposure (not sandbox-only work)
Why join Bigstack
Work on real cloud infrastructure systems, not just appsLearn from engineers experienced in OpenStack, Ceph, and KubernetesBe part of building carrier-grade and sovereign cloud platformsGain hands-on experience with production-scale systems
One-line takeaway
Build it. Observe it. Debug it. Understand it deeply
