Senior Software Engineer SaaS Infrastructure

What Youll Do

The AI Dev Platform Tooling team builds and operates the SaaS platform that lets our engineers ship software quickly reliably and safely. We own the deployment automation infrastructure provisioning and monitoring and release systems built on a Go Kubernetes Terraform and PostgreSQL stack that underpin our engineering organizations ability to deliver software to customers across GCP AWS Azure.

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to design build and operate the backend services and APIs at the core of our SaaS infrastructure. This is primarily a backend software engineering role: youll write Go running on Kubernetes manage state in PostgreSQL and provision infrastructure with Terraform across multiple public clouds. Youll evolve designs to meet increasingly challenging scale stability and performance demands and own large ambiguous problems end to end. We care deeply about a sustainable on-call culture so youll participate in on-call rotations while championing the architecture that reduces on-call burden over time.

In this role you will:

• Design build deploy and operate critical backend services and APIs that power our SaaS infrastructure across AWS GCP Azure and customer-managed environments.
• Treat API design as a first-class concern defining clean durable interfaces that internal and external consumers depend on.
• Evolve system designs to meet increasingly challenging scale stability and performance requirements.
• Break down and solve large ambiguous problems turning them into well-scoped shippable engineering work.
• Reduce on-call burden through better architecture automation and observability and participate in on-call rotations.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship work alongside Principal Engineers and influence the broader technical direction of the platform.
• Contribute to frontend web clients where it accelerates the team (a plus not a requirement).

Who You Are

• 4 years of professional software engineering experience designing building deploying and operating critical backend services across a large enterprise.
• Deep hands-on expertise with our core stack: Go Kubernetes Terraform and PostgreSQL.
• Deep experience with one or more major public clouds (AWS GCP or Azure).
• Strong API design skills with a track record of building interfaces that scale and last.
• Proven ability to evolve designs to meet increasingly challenging scale stability and performance requirements.
• Demonstrated ability to break down and solve large ambiguous problems.
• Comfortable owning on-call for services you build and passionate about reducing on-call burden through architecture.
• Proven ability to provide technical leadership to team members work effectively with Principal Engineers influence technical direction and contribute to the success of cross-functional stakeholders.

Preferred

• Experience building and operating SaaS products.
• Experience with CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions Jenkins etc.) and monitoring/observability tooling (Prometheus Datadog etc.).
