The Role

You’ll be trusted to: take ownership of critical designs and drive them forward; engage other engineers to produce correct and simple solutions to complex problems; work directly with other teams to understand requirements; and much more. We place a strong emphasis on clean designs, extensive research and rapid prototyping; using both your existing experience and willingness to learn, you will have the opportunity to work on challenging projects that have a large impact.

You’ll need to have

• 4+ years developing sensitive or high-performance backend systems

We’d love to see

• Experience with Golang and/or gRPC


• Experience with React; we build a lot of developer tooling to operate our systems


• Experience with streaming or event-driven architectures (Kafka, message queues, workflow engines)


• Familiarity with distributed systems primitives: consensus, gossip protocols, distributed coordination
