  • Improve observability with metrics, logging, tracing and profiling
  • Write design documents, RFCs and tests, and help improve CI/CD and releases

What they ask for

  • Experience designing and operating distributed systems: consistency, fault tolerance, partitioning, back pressure
  • Proficiency in TypeScript and/or Go, ideally 5+ years of production services
  • Comfort with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) and container orchestration
  • Familiarity with multi-tenant architecture, API design and data modelling
  • Knowledge of networking fundamentals and security practices
  • Infrastructure as Code experience (Pulumi preferred; Terraform or CDK fine)
  • Willingness to join on-call rotations

What they offer

  • Fully remote with a co-working allowance
