About the role

Backend-focused Product Engineer role building infrastructure and customer-facing workflows to enable developers and AI agents to operate securely in parallel, with Go-based services, orchestration for long-running tasks, and security-focused execution workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with customers to build developer and security workflows, from getting a project running to investigating findings, reviewing agent-generated changes, and verifying fixes.
  • Build Go services and APIs for provisioning cloud environments, running agents in customer infrastructure, and integrating with source control, CI, and other developer tools.
  • Design reliable orchestration for long-running, parallel work, including durable state, retries, cancellation, and recovery.
  • Build security into execution workflows through clear permissions, credential handling, isolation, and auditability.
  • Own production quality: testing, safe rollouts, observability, performance, and operational reliability.
  • Partner with frontend and design colleagues to make complex backend capabilities straightforward to use.

Qualifications

  • Have strong Go skills and experience building and operating production backend systems.
  • Understand distributed systems, concurrency, and state, and can reason about failures and recovery.
  • Have practical experience with Linux, containers, cloud infrastructure, and networking, including routing, DNS, and secure connectivity.
  • Can design clear APIs and data models that simplify complex workflows.
  • Are product-minded and want to stay close to customers, understand their needs, and own solutions from problem discovery through launch and iteration.
  • Communicate technical decisions clearly and work effectively across disciplines and locations.
