- Establish GraphQL, gRPC, and REST standards for other teams to follow
- Monitor production health using SLOs, resolve issues, and participate in on-call rotations
- Mentor peers and provide code reviews and design feedback
Requirements
- Significant professional experience building and operating production services in Go
- Experience designing APIs with careful attention to schema design, versioning, and backward compatibility
- Background working with large-scale, high-traffic distributed systems
- Experience breaking down legacy systems or monoliths incrementally
- Working knowledge of cloud networking fundamentals including VPCs, DNS, load balancing, and service authentication
- Familiarity with Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and release engineering practices
- Experience with major cloud providers, particularly GCP
- Familiarity with observability tools such as Grafana Cloud, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry
- Clear communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively

- Working knowledge of Rust
- Experience working with Cassandra or managing stateful datastores in production
- Experience migrating off end-of-life language runtimes
- Hands-on experience with private service networking or service meshes
- Working knowledge of GCP Workflows, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run, and Cloud Build
- Working knowledge of AlloyDB, MySQL, and Redis
