WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...
 The Infrastructure Engineer - Meteorological Development role combines infrastructure engineering, platform reliability, and software development to deliver highly available, scalable, and high-performance systems to support 4 billion global locations with high quality data. Working in a modern cloud-native environment, you will design and operate distributed systems on Kubernetes (AWS EKS & GCP GKE) with Istio service mesh and AWS ECS using Docker containers, infrastructure as code (Terraform & Terragrunt), and GitOps/CI/CD pipelines (on Jenkins). You will work across AWS and/or GCP services, manage application delivery with Helm, and support stateful and caching layers such as Redis (AWS Elasticache). You will ensure system reliability through Linux-based operations and observability tooling including Prometheus, Grafana, Kibana, ElasticSearch,Jaeger and Kiali. Implement and maintain playbook and runbooks using bash scripts and Ansible. Working closely with technical leads, developers, operations teams, and infrastructure administrators, this role helps modernize and standardize infrastructure through automation, observability, and cloud/platform engineering best practices. The Infrastructure Engineer plays a key role in ensuring platform stability, scalability, security, and operational excellence across critical meteorological systems and data pipelines.  Provide support to Pelmorex’s meteorological infrastructure and platforms that powers The Weather Network, MeteoMedia, ElTiempo.es, and subsidiaries.  Are you up for the challenge?

Background in meteorology is a “nice to have”, but if you don’t, don’t worry you will be working closely with our Meteorology R&D team and have the support of the current development team. 


 
Please note this is a contract role until February 2027 and we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and can work in a Hybrid model at our Oakville, ON, Canada location.
