Own
Architect, build, and operate services on the hot path of task execution where performance and correctness are customer-visible.
Deliver real-world cloud integrations (e.g., customer-account execution): IAM boundaries, secure credentials handling, networking constraints, quotas, and failure modes.
Make operability a feature: SLOs, tracing/metrics, load and failure testing, incident reviews, and continuous hardening.
Ship end-to-end: API design, rollout strategy, backwards compatibility, and long-term maintenance.
Teach
Raise the bar through design docs, strong reviews, pragmatic technical leadership, and mentorship.
Lead through influence across teams (Server, SDKs, Security, Control Plane) to land coherent platform changes.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
Significant experience building distributed systems or multi-tenant platform services (design, implementation, and production operations).
Strong systems fundamentals: concurrency, performance, reliability, and failure-mode thinking.
A record of shipping platform primitives used by other engineers/customers (APIs, control planes, data planes).
Comfort owning outcomes: SLOs, incident response, and improving on-call quality over time.
Excellent written communication and crisp trade-off thinking. (Go experience is a plus; judgment matters most.)
SUPER TO HAVE
Experience building cloud compute platforms spanning physical servers, CPU/GPU resources, virtual machines, container orchestration, and networking.
Experience extending Kubernetes through custom controllers and CRDs, and operating heterogeneous Kubernetes worker fleets.
Experience with IAM/security boundaries for cross-account execution models.
