Staff Software Developer, Backend
Remote - CAN
This role can be performed remotely anywhere within the United States and Canada.
FullStory’s mission is to help teams create amazing online experiences for their customers. We do this by applying deep expertise in distributed systems and computer science to build an ambitiously high-scale and high-value platform. The work environment we've cultivated is aligned around our four watchwords: clarity, empathy, trust, and bionics. We value high-quality/low-ego collaboration and use automation to eliminate toil in daily work. If that sounds good to you, join us!
The Core Services team makes FullStory possible through their efforts/software. At hundreds of thousands of requests per second, services and databases need to be rock solid—that’s where you come in. Lead architectural changes, scale API infrastructure, contribute to shared libraries for RPC and our service skeleton. Here are some blog posts from members of the engineering team which highlight the types of work you might be doing.
Day-to-day you’ll:
Engineer systems that operate at tens to hundreds of thousands of requests per second (Go, Kubernetes, GCP).
Collaborate with teammates to craft the strategy and execution for scaling FullStory.
Maintain and troubleshoot parts of FullStory’s production environment.
Provide assistance to other teams in order to build impressive capabilities.
We’re looking for someone who:
Has 7+ years of experience with web systems at scale.
Has experience writing core systems and libraries for internal backend teams.
Has experience using typed languages for backend system development and web stacks in general (e.g., Go, Java, TypeScript)
Has experience with the following or similar: gRPC, Kubernetes, BigTable/Cassandra/DynamoDB, pub/sub and stream processing architectures
It would be amazing if:
You have an interest/experience in distributed systems and/or databases.
You have the ability to learn new coding languages.
You’re interested not only in making good software, but also how to make good software easier to produce.
You are self-motivated; engineers own and drive efforts to completion rather than waiting for someone to tell us what to do.
