About this job

The Role:

We are looking for strong engineers with experience and interest in designing, building, and maintaining the novel, high-performance systems that make up our serverless platform.

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of experience writing high-quality production code

  • Experience building high-performance distributed systems at a large scale (the more battle scars, the better)

  • Strong cloud skills

  • Strong knowledge of low-level operating system foundations (Linux kernel, file systems, containers, etc.)

  • Experience with performance engineering (tell us a story of when you shaved off a few milliseconds!)

  • Ability to work in-person in our NYC or SF office.

  • Prior experience with Rust is nice to have, but not required.

  • Ability to participate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents.
