Job description
-
Deliver core platform components: async (Tokio/Rust) backend services, well-defined APIs, and real-time data/event models.
-
Partner closely with React/front-end teams to enable shared components, efficient state management, and system health visualizations.
-
Advance prototypes to production: transform algorithms or domain logic into well-tested, high-performance endpoints with solid observability.
-
Architect for resilience: address intermittent connectivity, graceful degradation, security hardening, and offline scenarios.
-
Drive quality and velocity: refine CI/CD, improve testing (performance, contract/property), and establish clear instrumentation and SLO/error budgets.
-
Mentor and influence: facilitate clear design narratives, code reviews, and integrate product and field feedback into the development lifecycle.
Requirements
-
7+ years building customer-facing, production-grade software systems.
-
Modern full-stack expertise: React (or equivalent) front-ends and async backend services (Tokio/Rust or similar).
-
Strong experience with modular architectures, documented API contracts, and robust service lifecycles.
-
Designed for real-world constraints: field/defense/automotive deployments or similar high-stakes, performance-critical systems.
-
Hands-on with Python and/or Rust and/or C/C++ for practical, scalable solutions.
-
Skilled collaborator with product, UX, and technical experts; strong communication in cross-functional contexts.
-
Track record mentoring peers and driving technical excellence without direct authority.
- Familiar with CI/CD practices, observability, and resilient system patterns.
- B.S. in Computer Science or equivalent industry experience
