Software Engineer - Infra/DevOps

About Wishlink

Wishlink is building the future of creator-led shopping. We help users discover and buy products through content creators they trust, sitting at the intersection of e-commerce and social media. In just 4 years, we've grown to 900k users daily, Rs 300cr+ monthly GMV, 30,000+ creators, and 200+ brand partners.

Team and Investors

We’re 3 founders, Chandan, Shaurya, and Divyansh, with a shared passion to solve real-world problems at scale and consume content for hours. We started Wishlink in January 2022 and are based out of Gurugram. We have recently raised a series B round of $17.5M in February 2026, backed by leading global investors including Vertex Ventures SE Asia & India, Fundamentum, and Elevation Capital.

Why Join Us?

Our team includes alumni from IITs, IIMs, and top tech companies, and we move fast while having a LOT of fun! We work with brands like Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Nykaa, Ajio, H&M, and many more. At Wishlink, you get to work in a fast emerging consumer-tech startup and play an integral part in building the creator-enabled eCommerce space.

What would you be doing?

Watch Reels and YouTube videos every day & level up on your fashion sense!
Own the reliability and performance of Wishlink’s production infrastructure — availability, capacity planning, incident response, and root-cause analysis across all services.
Build and improve CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows (ArgoCD) so engineering teams ship confidently, multiple times a day.
Define and operate SLO/error-budget frameworks with product and engineering teams; set up alerting that catches real problems, not noise.
Design and manage our AWS infrastructure using Terraform, including EKS clusters, networking, IAM, and cost governance.
Build and evolve the observability stack — Prometheus for metrics, ELK for logs, Kapacitor for intelligent alerting, Grafana for dashboards — to close visibility gaps before they become outages.
Run the production readiness review process for new services, ensuring every launch meets infra, observability, and security baselines before going live.

What are we looking for?

If you are a content creator yourself or have worked closely in the social media space — we like you already :)

4+ years of hands-on experience managing production infrastructure on AWS.
Deep working knowledge of Kubernetes (EKS) — you’ve operated clusters, debugged pod scheduling issues, tuned resource limits, set up HPA/VPA, and managed Helm releases. This is non-negotiable; we run everything on K8s.
Strong with Terraform (or equivalent IaC) and GitOps workflows — you’ve used ArgoCD or Flux to manage deployments declaratively, not just run kubectl apply.
Built or maintained CI/CD pipelines end-to-end (Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar).
Hands-on with Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, and Kapacitor (or similar TICK stack components) — you’ve built monitoring and alerting that engineering teams actually trust and use.
Comfortable scripting in Python or Go to automate infra tasks, write operators, or build internal tooling.
Solid understanding of networking fundamentals — DNS, load balancing, gRPC, ingress controllers — enough to debug production traffic issues without guessing.
You treat incidents as engineering problems — structured RCA, blameless postmortems, and follow-through on action items.

Good to Have

Security hardening — secrets management (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager), network policies, pod security standards.
Cloud cost optimization and FinOps practices.
Experience operating distributed systems at scale: message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ), distributed databases, caching layers.
Contributions to internal developer platforms or self-service infra tooling.

We are committed to providing the best environment for you to thrive in. To help with this, we have the following benefits available for all our employees.
