Webflow

9d • $165,000 - $225,000 • Remote

About The Position

Webflow is hiring a Senior Infrastructure/SRE Engineer to improve the reliability and stability of the customer-facing production infrastructure behind its Convert pillar. Convert includes Webflow Analyze, Optimize, AEO, and Campaigns, products that help marketing and growth teams experiment, personalize, and drive revenue through their web presence. The role is remote-first in the United States and Argentina and is a permanent, exempt position.

The engineer will own the reliability, performance, and cost of data infrastructure, including high-volume event ingestion, streaming and batch pipelines, analytical databases, and systems that turn visitor behavior into reporting, experiments, and personalization. The role involves setting SLOs, improving observability, planning capacity, and ensuring data remains fresh, accurate, and available as volume grows. The engineer will work across a large, revenue-generating system and partner with engineering teams as the platform evolves.

The position owns and evolves cloud infrastructure for Convert products, including compute, serverless, networking, and AWS cloud operations. It develops the Pulumi infrastructure-as-code foundation and shared components, improves distributed event-driven systems and data workloads, leads projects from design through launch, and builds maintainable code and automation. The role also uses AI tools and develops AI-powered infrastructure automation. The compensation range for United States workers is $165,000–$225,000 depending on zone: Zone A $187,500–$225,000; Zone B $176,700–$212,000; Zone C $165,000–$198,000. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis until the position is closed and filled. This posting is for a new position.

Requirements

• BA/BS degree or equivalent experience.
• Business-level fluency in English, including reading, writing, and speaking.
• At least 5 years owning and operating cloud infrastructure in a customer-facing environment with little tolerance for downtime.
• Deep hands-on experience with AWS and a clear understanding of effective cloud operations.
• Experience with infrastructure as code, such as Pulumi or Terraform, and preference for making changes through code rather than consoles.
• Experience operating high-throughput, data-intensive distributed systems in production, such as Druid, MongoDB, or Airflow, and understanding of scalability, fault tolerance, consistency trade-offs, and performance tuning.
• Fluency in Python or TypeScript/Node.js for automation and tooling, and ability to read and work in Java services.
• Ability to design SLOs, dashboards, and alerts that surface issues before customers notice and make pages actionable.
• Incident response experience, including on-call and blameless postmortems, with a focus on fixing root causes.
• Interest in improving developer productivity through CI/CD, tooling, and paved paths.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with Apache Spark, Airflow, or TensorFlow.
• Familiarity with Kafka or other event streaming platforms.
• Experience building AI-assisted infrastructure tooling, including cost optimization loops, anomaly detection, or policy-as-code with LLM assistance.
• Experience contributing to multi-region architecture, including data residency, regional failover, or latency-based routing.

Responsibilities

• Own and evolve the cloud infrastructure behind Convert products, including compute, serverless, networking, and AWS cloud operations.
• Build and maintain the infrastructure-as-code foundation in Pulumi and evolve patterns and shared components used by other teams.
• Improve scalability and reliability of distributed, event-driven systems, including Druid, MongoDB, and Airflow workloads, with a focus on low latency.
• Own the reliability, performance, and cost of data infrastructure, including streaming and batch pipelines and analytical databases.
• Set SLOs, improve observability, plan capacity, and help keep data fresh, accurate, and available as volume grows.
• Improve dashboards, alerts, and SLOs so issues are detected before customers notice and on-call pages are actionable.
• Lead projects from design through launch that advance team and engineering organization goals.
• Write and review maintainable, tested, performant code and automation, raising the quality bar for the team.
• Build AI-powered automation, including policy-as-code, drift detection, and LLM-assisted runbook generation, and use AI tools in daily work.
• Handle incidents, participate in on-call and blameless postmortems, and address root causes.
• Improve developer productivity through CI/CD, tooling, and paved paths that help product engineers ship without owning infrastructure.
• Help the team build reliable systems.

Benefits

• Equity in the form of RSUs for every permanent employee.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for full-time employees and their dependents, with Webflow covering most premiums.
• 12 weeks of paid parental leave for all parents and 6 or more weeks of additional paid leave for birthing parents.
