Get to Know the Role

We are looking for a Devops Engineer who would be thrilled at architecting and operating one of the biggest data platforms in Southeast Asia, with a passion for automation and a strong sense of customer service. An engineer in this role would build on inflight data that is of terabyte-scale and distributed systems that routinely serve tens of thousands of queries every second with tight SLAs.

In this role, you would get the opportunity to be part of a team that designs and operates the mission-critical infrastructure that processes every piece of data generated or consumed by Grab's systems.

• Finding opportunities to collaborate with our main stakeholders such as the Cloud Infrastructure, Cybersecurity, and Compliance teams, as well as the other data teams of Data Tech (data lake, machine learning, segmentation…). Ensuring that their requirements are built into automated guardrails in our platforms and products.
• Supporting our users in their needs of more real-time data, always with a view to self-service and automation where possible.
• Experimenting and rolling out new cross-cutting technologies - container clusters and service mesh, Kubernetes operators, modern stream processing platforms, secrets management, monitoring and logging solutions, and more.
