- Help refine and advocate best practices for application and infrastructure monitoring.
You want to:
- Collaborate on designing and implementing well-tested, performant applications with a focus on concurrency.
- Deliver high-quality API solutions using Graph QL and REST at scale.
- Build scalable software in Golang (experience with Ruby, Node, Python, or similar environments is a plus).
- Automate deployment and scaling with Terraform and Kubernetes.
- Write robust unit and integration tests-testing is key to our culture.
We would love you to have:
- Proven ability to thrive as a self-starter in a remote-friendly environment.
- Solid Golang experience.
- 2+ years of experience developing and deploying software platforms in a Dev Ops environment- we run what we build.
- Experience building APIs, SDKs, or CLI tools.
