[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer @Pantheon Systems, Inc

Role Description

Pantheon is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Connectivity & API Transformation team. We're expanding an impressive and growing platform that powers hundreds of thousands of websites, millions of containerized resources, billions of monthly page views, and development tools that professional website developers use.

Our team owns the connective tissue of that platform:

• The federated GraphQL API that every Pantheon surface is built on
• The network layer and discovery patterns that let our services find and reach each other
• The orchestration layer that runs customer-facing automation
• The ongoing work of decomposing our legacy core into well-bounded modern services

It's a role with unusual leverage — the interfaces and pathways you design become the contract that every other engineering team at Pantheon builds against.

Pantheon's core company values are Trust, Teamwork, Passion, and Customers First. Additionally, the Pantheon engineering teams are built around a focus on collaboration, character, autonomy, and a no-blame culture.

If all of this sounds interesting to you, read on!

• Experience with a major cloud provider; GCP especially welcome
• Experience leveraging observability tooling like Grafana Cloud, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry to understand systems in production
• Experience supporting live sites and participating in on-call
• Clear communication skills and the ability to represent your contributions and ideas with clarity while remaining open and giving space to the contributions and ideas of others

Requirements

• Hands-on experience with GraphQL Federation, a federation gateway or router (Grafbase, Apollo, Hive), or a schema registry
• Working knowledge of Rust
• Experience with Cassandra, or with running a stateful datastore in production — backups, DR, multi-region replication
• Experience migrating off end-of-life language runtimes (for example, Python 2)
• Hands-on experience with private service networking or a service mesh — Shared VPC, VPC peering, Private Service Connect, internal DNS, Istio/Envoy
• Working knowledge of GCP Workflows, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run, Cloud Build
• Working knowledge of AlloyDB, MySQL, Redis
• Working knowledge of Docker, CircleCI, GitHub Actions, Vault
