Job details
About this role
Role overview
Build and operate the shared platform services that other cloud engineering teams rely on. The work spans core control-plane systems, secure access for people and AI agents, and developer tooling that helps teams deliver changes safely. You’ll balance hardening existing services with creating new platform capabilities, and participate in the operational support of production systems.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and run control-plane services in Go. - Develop platform-wide authentication, authorization, security, and audit capabilities, including OAuth-based access through APIs and command-line tools. - Improve engineering workflows with CI/CD, automated testing, and safeguards for code changes, including AI-assisted contributions. - Strengthen monitoring, logging, alerting, and metrics for platform services. - Reduce recurring operational work through engineering improvements and take part in on-call, incident response, and root-cause analysis. - Coordinate with teams responsible for cluster lifecycle, operations, and billing and identity services.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of software engineering experience, including substantial work in platform, backend, or infrastructure engineering. - Strong Go skills and experience operating production APIs or backend services using gRPC or REST. - Production experience running services on Kubernetes and using at least one major cloud provider. - Working knowledge of OAuth2/OIDC, tokens, API keys, and secure-by-default design. - Experience with CI/CD and automated testing, and readiness to join an on-call rotation and handle production incidents. - Clear communication and a strong sense of ownership.
Nice to have
- Experience building internal platforms or developer tools for engineering teams. - Infrastructure-as-code experience, such as Terraform, or familiarity with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry. - Background in SaaS, databases, or systems-oriented products.
Benefits and work setup
- Remote-first work with an international, asynchronous-friendly team and flexible hours. - Open-source, engineering-focused environment, meaningful ownership, and a choice of laptop equipment. - Salary and additional perks are described as competitive; specific amounts are not provided. Full-time US employees receive health, dental, and vision coverage, retirement matching, and flexible paid time off.
