WHY WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU:
Retool is in an exciting hyper-growth phase and we need infrastructure engineers to tackle our rapid scaling challenges. These scaling challenges are unique both in scope and in technical complexity as we scale both the company and the product.
As a member of the infrastructure team, you will build and automate foundational systems for reliability, security, performance, developer velocity, and scale.

- Scale Retool’s core cloud platform for high availability and performance globally
- Work collaboratively with the rest of the engineering team to deliver infrastructure for core and emerging products
- Evolve our backend architecture/infrastructure for both cloud and on-premise deployments
- Work with the team to set and prioritize our roadmap to maximize customer impact
- Define and automate developer process/workflow
- Support our systems in production
- Develop new data solutions
- Build monitoring and observability for production systems
