Job description

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Dev Services team, you will play a key role in expanding developer capabilities across the CRE platform by building scalable platform services and developer tooling. You will drive improvements that reduce operational silos, strengthen platform reliability, and deliver a best-in-class developer experience for internal engineering teams and external developers.

Your Impact

  • Deliver core capabilities across the CLI, Go SDK, TypeScript SDK, and frontend services that enable developers to build more effectively on the CRE platform.
  • Improve vertical and horizontal scalability across critical platform services.
  • Increase workflow execution durability and platform reliability for developer-facing systems.
  • Reduce knowledge silos by expanding ownership across critical components of the CRE platform.
  • Elevate the developer experience through high-quality platform APIs, tooling, and SDK improvements.
  • Strengthen operational resilience by increasing shared ownership of production systems and on-call responsibilities.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience developing and operating software systems at scale.
  • Built and maintained production backend applications and APIs serving multiple stakeholders.
  • Experience designing, building, and operating distributed systems.
  • Advanced proficiency developing production software in Go.
  • Independently owned complex technical initiatives from design through production delivery while navigating ambiguous requirements.
  • Delivered high-quality implementations with strong engineering rigor and attention to reliability and quality.

Preferred Requirements

  • Experience with several of the following: data pipelines and processing, observability platforms, customer-facing applications or developer tools with a strong UX focus, large-scale SQL data systems, gRPC services, low-latency systems, or consensus algorithms.
  • Developed software in TypeScript and/or Solidity.
  • Demonstrated interest in blockchain and Web3 technologies.
  • Track record of partnering closely with product, sales, marketing, customer-facing teams, or directly with customers.
  • Experience building decentralized applications (dApps).
  • Experience developing banking infrastructure or other financial software.
