О компании и продукте

• Our mission is to democratize finance for all
• We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. The Storage Platform team builds and operates the platform that powers database access across Robinhood. We own relational (Postgres/Aurora), key-value (DynamoDB), and caching systems, along with the SDKs, control plane automation, and data plane services that enable safe and reliable access at scale
• Our mission is to standardize and strengthen how services connect to storage, improve reliability and performance, and reduce operational overhead through automation. We manage thousands of databases and hundreds of caching clusters supporting millions of users and critical brokerage workloads. Availability is our highest priority — our systems are designed to meet strict uptime targets, including no downtime during market hours

Задачи

• Build and ship services that improve database reliability and performance, including connection pooling, query routing, and database access patterns
• Implement automation that reduces manual work for operating databases and caching clusters at scale (provisioning, configuration changes, backups, and routine operations)
• Improve observability for storage systems by adding metrics, logs, and alerts that help detect issues early and speed up incident response
• Diagnose and resolve production issues across storage infrastructure, including latency regressions, capacity constraints, and availability events
