About the role

You are the connective tissue between our customers and our product. You’re a product engineer focused on a key dimension of the user experience: reliability. When reliability is threatened, you'll work directly with customers to understand impact, stop the bleeding, create a robust fix, and then close the loop.

What they're looking for

  • 2+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful time spent in reliability, platform, or production-facing roles

  • Comfortable reading and writing Go, TypeScript, or similar backend languages
  • Experience building or improving observability infrastructure (alerting, dashboards, telemetry)
  • High ownership mentality: you close the loop, you write the postmortem, you ship the fix
