I’ve always been curious about this. What I mean by infrastructure, I mean internal dist sys infrastructure that other product teams use to actually build the product. For example, GFS, Spanner, Chubby, bigtable, at Google Would these engineers be on a specific core infra team? How does one position themselves to work on these types of projects in their career?
Nothing much. Just select there teams during team match.
Another thing ive noticed is almost all these dudes are principal, distinguished with phds.
I do. Just state your preferences during team matching. Better chances if you have prior low-stack backend experience but not required.
newbie here how does the team matching work? and what is the process behind matching?

Terminology might be off. I guess any engineer could submit a patch for infra tools. Whether it gets taken seriously is another question, as ive seen on past teams.
