• Solve complex problems around real-time sync, scalability, and fault-tolerance in heterogeneous network environments.
• Mentor and collaborate with engineers across the org, raising the technical bar.

Qualifications

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience; Senior or Staff-level track record.
• Experience at scale, ideally at a FAANG or major cloud provider (Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.).
• Strong background in Rust (or equivalent systems languages like C++/Go, with willingness to ramp on Rust).
• Deep understanding of Kubernetes (K8s), cloud-native architectures, and distributed systems.
• Proven ability to deliver in high-scale, production environments.
• Based in the United States (remote-friendly).

Benefits

• Competitive salaries and meaningful equity.
• Health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, plus a 401(k) and flexible spending accounts (in the US).
• Flexible time off for all employees.
• Access to Atlanta and San Francisco offices for remote workers.
