The Opportunity

Intent HQ is embarking on the journey of building a next-generation data and AI platform to collate and analyze highly granular behavioral intent data across web and mobile. We’re seeking an experienced, infrastructure-focused engineer to help shape this vision—integrating data from a variety of SDKs and building a rock-solid foundation that makes handling large-scale data feel seamless and reliable.

What You’ll Do

Architect and implement resilient, always-on infrastructure to ingest data, starting with our highly successful, privacy-first mobile telemetry product.

1. Partner with our AI and Data teams, ensuring the platform is ready to support advanced ML systems.

• Champion an SRE culture—building proactive monitoring and systems that detect issues before they impact customers.

• Define a clear path for onboarding existing systems and customers onto the new platform.

• Contribute to the maturation of release and deployment practices across the company.

• Optimise costs and reuse infrastructure wherever possible to maximize efficiency.

• Provide operational support to ensure smooth day-to-day performance.

What We’re Looking For

Essential

• 5+ years of experience in software or infrastructure engineering roles.

• Strong experience with at least one major public cloud (we primarily use AWS).

• Awareness of how infrastructure and platform decisions impact downstream systems.

• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, containers, and Terraform.

• Practical experience deploying and operating Kafka-based infrastructure.

• Solid scripting/software skills in Python.

Desired (but not essential)

• Experience with telemetry or IoT workloads.

• Familiarity with Databricks.

• Background in infrastructure teams supporting high-scale data or ML applications.
