About The Team

Kuku is India's largest audio/video content platform — 3M+ DAU, 50k+ hours of content, and over 3 billion

events processed daily. The infra team owns the foundation that makes all of this work: data pipelines, ML

infrastructure, network infrastructure, platform tooling, CI/CD, and observability. We're a lean team with

high ownership. What you build ships rapid and operates at real scale.

What You'll Work On

• Build and maintain data pipelines — batch and streaming — that process 3B+ daily events. Reliability

and cost matter as much as throughput.

• Work on network infrastructure — service connectivity, internal networking abstractions, and

ensuring secure, reliable communication across our platform services.

• Own pieces of ML pipeline infrastructure: data ingestion, feature pipelines, and model serving infra

that supports our recommendation and personalisation systems.

• Work on platform problems: container orchestration, infra-as-code, and internal abstractions that let

product teams move without depending on infra for every deploy.





• Set up and improve our observability stack. Define SLIs, own alerts, reduce MTTR. If something

breaks, we want to know before users do.

• Contribute to CI/CD reliability: faster builds, cleaner rollouts, fewer incidents at deploy time.
• Contribute to internal AI tooling — building or integrating tools that improve developer productivity

and automate repetitive infra and data workflows.

What We're Looking For

• 3 - 5 years in backend or infrastructure engineering, with production experience — not just side

projects

• Strong Python; you write code that runs in production, not just automation scripts
• Real experience with distributed data processing and streaming systems in a production environment
• Hands-on with container orchestration and infra-as-code tooling
• Familiarity with observability tooling — metrics, logs, traces
• Some understanding of ML pipelines — you don't need to be an ML engineer
