  • Design reliable orchestration for long-running, parallel work, including durable state, retries, cancellation, and recovery.
  • Build security into execution workflows through permissions, credential handling, isolation, and auditability.
  • Own production quality through testing, safe rollouts, observability, performance, and operational reliability.
  • Partner with frontend and design colleagues to make complex backend capabilities straightforward to use.

Requirements

  • Strong Go skills and experience building and operating production backend systems.
  • Understanding of distributed systems, concurrency, state, failures, and recovery.
  • Practical experience with Linux, containers, cloud infrastructure, and networking, including routing, DNS, and secure connectivity.
  • Ability to design clear APIs and data models for complex workflows.
  • Product mindset, customer focus, and ownership from problem discovery through launch and iteration.
  • Clear technical communication and effective cross-functional collaboration.

Nice-to-haves
