This position is open to candidates worldwide, meaning you can apply and work from anywhere as long as you meet all the requirements.
As a Staff Software Engineer, you will be at the core of one of the most technically demanding challenges in up-to-date web infrastructure: optimizing how web traffic is intercepted, processed, and delivered at massive scale across an edge computing platform. You will work on a system handling tens of thousands of requests per second and tens of billions of dollars of annual e-commerce volume, alongside a small, high-caliber engineering team where every engineer owns a meaningful piece of the system.
This is not a ticket-execution role. You will be a technical leader in architecture and design, collaborating directly with the CTO and lead platform engineer to define how the platform evolves. You will plan rollouts methodically, define success metrics before shipping, debug complex cross-browser and cross-device behavior, and build systems that cannot fail.
