Own GitOps-based deployment pipelines for versioned workflow definitions across isolated customer environments

Build secure connector services for third-party APIs, including scoped access, platform-managed credentials, request validation, and audit logging

5+ years of backend software engineering experience, including experience building and operating production services using Go or Rust
-
Experience building event-driven systems using Kafka or similar technologies, including retries, idempotency, replay, and at-least-once delivery
-
Experience implementing authentication or authorization using OAuth 2.0, OIDC, token lifecycle management, machine identity, or fine-grained access controls
-
Experience implementing encryption or key-management solutions using cloud KMS platforms, envelope encryption, or key-hierarchy designs
-
Experience operating multi-tenant production services using structured logging, metrics, distributed tracing, and incident-response practices
Preferred Qualifications
-
Experience with Temporal or another durable workflow orchestration platform
-
Experience integrating identity platforms such as Zitadel, Keycloak, Auth0, Okta, or similar technologies
-
Experience with ClickHouse or another columnar, append-only, or audit-focused data store
-
Experience with GitOps, CI/CD, Kubernetes, or infrastructure-as-code deployment practices
