About the role

Backend-focused software engineer role designing and maintaining the Go services behind Telnyx’s serverless platform, function deployment pipeline, and global control plane with emphasis on developer experience, reliability, and scale.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build the Go services behind our serverless platform, function deployment pipeline, and global control plane.
  • Own backend and control-plane software, from customer-facing APIs and resource lifecycles to services that deploy and manage workloads across our edge infrastructure.
  • Make the platform great to use: clean APIs, a sharp CLI, predictable behaviour, and useful error messages. Developer experience is a feature, not an afterthought.
  • Build reliable workflows for deployments, configuration, storage, and observability. Handle the retries, state, and failure cases that come with operations spanning multiple services and data centres.
  • Work with Kubernetes and our runtime infrastructure through the control plane, and help diagnose latency, throughput, and reliability issues across the platform.
  • Build tooling that helps us operate safely at scale. Participate in on-call for the systems you build.

Qualifications

  • 2–5 years of professional backend software development experience.
  • Proficiency in Go, or strong experience in a comparable backend language (Rust, Java, C++) and an interest in writing Go day-to-day.
  • Solid distributed systems fundamentals. You've debugged service-to-service problems in production and understand retries, partial failures, and idempotency.
  • Comfort designing APIs and resource models that other engineers will actually use.
  • Experience with relational databases, including schemas, transactions, and migrations.
  • Experience building asynchronous systems using queues, background jobs, state machines, or similar patterns.
  • Working knowledge of Kubernetes and an interest in building software that deploys and manages workloads on Kubernetes-based infrastructure.
  • Experience running highly available services, including being on-call.
