About The Position

We're looking for a Lead Infrastructure Engineer to design, build, automate, and operate infrastructure across our on-prem data centers and GCP environments. This role suits an engineer who came up through hands-on operations (racking hardware, running networks, bare metal OS installs, keeping systems online at 2am) and has since built deep expertise in automation, infrastructure as code, and public cloud. You'll set technical direction for infrastructure, mentor engineers, and own the systems that scale our global operations. As a Commerce brand, Feedonomics is a leading product feed management platform that helps brands, retailers, and agencies list and optimize products across top ecommerce channels worldwide. Feedonomics manages everything from onboarding to ongoing feed optimization, enabling our clients to scale faster with less effort. Feedonomics has earned a strong reputation for a full-service model and powerful technology—all rooted in a commitment to excellence.
