Who We Are
The Infrastructure organization enables Reddit to deliver reliability, performance, and efficiency with a single opinionated technology stack. The Ingestion Platform team within Infrastructure builds a low-code interface for moving data from supported sources to supported sinks, making it easier for teams across Reddit to create reliable, scalable data pipelines without building and operating bespoke infrastructure. Our platform supports streaming and batch data movement from Kafka to destinations such as BigQuery and object storage, and is expanding toward S3/GCS, Apache Iceberg, transformations, deduplication, and additional sinks. We work closely with Data Pipelines, Data Movement, Ads Data Platform, ML Indexing, Flink Platform, Storage, and other partner teams to improve developer velocity, reliability, observability, and operational efficiency.
