Collaborate across engineering teams, provide technical guidance and mentorship, and contribute to architecture and development practices that improve the scalability and maintainability of the platform.

Qualifications

5-10 years of relevant software or cloud engineering experience, with demonstrated senior-level ownership of complex production systems; Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Go expertise, emphasis on concurrency, systems programming, and production HTTP services
Strong networking and distributed-systems fundamentals, including SSH protocol concepts, reverse tunneling, network security, and state coordination using technologies such as etcd and Redis.
Experience with containerized CI/CD environments, production observability, and disciplined automated testing; comfortable working across languages and reading Python/Django code when needed, and able to use AI coding tools productively while critically validating generated work.
