The role is for a Software Development Engineer III within Swiggy's Instamart B2C department, specifically on the production engineering team. The team is responsible for designing, building, and operating Swiggy's cloud infrastructure and supporting platforms to ensure reliability, observability, elasticity, and governance. The engineer will own end-to-end design and architecture of complex systems, implement long-term technology visions, and build tools to empower other engineering teams to self-manage infrastructure. Key technical responsibilities include working with AWS, Kubernetes, DevOps practices, and coding in Python or GoLang to support distributed systems and high-availability platforms.
Running existing work“The posting states the team is responsible for the "smooth operation of the production infrastructure" and aims to "continuously improve on the key operational pillars (Reliability, Observability, Elasticity and Governance)." It also mentions building platforms that are "highly available, elastic, scalable, operable and observable" and implementing a "long-term technology vision," which indicates ongoing maintenance, improvement, and operation of existing systems rather than the initial launch of a new product.”
