## About the role

Conduit's Control Plane team owns the coordination layer of the Conduit Platform: the services that provision, update, and retire everything customers run on us — rollups, RPC nodes, indexing, and whatever comes next — meter what those products consume, and give both customers and our own team a trustworthy picture of what is actually running.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years building and operating production backend systems
- Systems breadth: you reason across several interacting systems at once — how they fail, where the seams belong, how they stay consistent
- Experience designing APIs and contracts that other teams depend on — versioning, backward compatibility, deprecation
- Comfort with asynchronous and event-driven systems: idempotency, retries, partial failure, eventual consistency
- Experience debugging complex issues across the stack — networking, performance, data integrity — and good instincts for where security boundaries belong
- Self-directed: comfortable with ambiguity, able to take a loosely-defined problem and drive it to done
