This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Cloud Engineer - Product Metrics based in the United States.
As a Cloud Engineer focused on Product Metrics, you will contribute to the design, development, and operation of a large-scale distributed data platform that powers real-time analytics and customer-facing insights. You will work on systems that process massive volumes of events with high reliability, precision, and performance requirements. This role blends backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, and data-intensive system design in a highly technical, remote-first environment. You will collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to build and evolve scalable services using modern cloud-native technologies. With ownership over critical production systems, you will directly impact data quality, product reliability, and customer experience at scale. This is an opportunity to work on cutting-edge distributed systems supporting high-throughput analytics and observability workloads.
