Kurtosis is writing the next chapter in the history of software development.

The story of computer science is one of abstraction layers built over abstraction layers: 0's and 1's become assembly code, C becomes Java, CPUs become the personal computer, and Kubernetes becomes Kurtosis.

By building an end-to-end environment management platform for the entire development cycle, Kurtosis allows individual developers to prototype, test, and iterate on a distributed system as a whole - saving massive amounts of developer time and unlocking workflows that were previously impossible.

Our code is open and source-available - see it here: https://github.com/kurtosis-tech/kurtosis to get a taste and feel of the product you would be working on at Kurtosis. Our cloud offering https://cloud.kurtosis.com/ closes the loop by provisioning hardware for end users, which otherwise would have to be done separately with the open offering. If you're excited by the problems we aim to solve, and the look and feel of our work so far, please read on!

About the role

  • Location: Fully remote, timezones between Pacific US and London (inclusive)

  • Employment type: Full-time

As a Senior Backend Software Engineer at Kurtosis you will: 

  • Be a part of the founding engineering team that builds features which will deliver lasting value to new customers

  • Design and implement complex, distributed platforms in Golang (experience in another industry standard is fine, we’ll teach Go)

  • Build stable and scalable architecture, understanding the tradeoffs between consistency, durability, and costs to build solutions to meet the evolution of a rapidly growing platform

  • Follow SRE principles to consistently deliver the Kurtosis platform in a reliable manner

  • Collaborate with both internal and external stakeholders to gather feedback and continually improve the platform

About You:

  • 8+ years of experience designing, building, and supporting large scale distributed systems 

  • Systems programming experience skills including multi-threading, concurrency etc.

  • Strong CS fundamentals with an appetite for learning 

  • Collaborative teammate, willing to roll up your sleeves and use instinct to get things done the right way

  • Passionate about building better tooling for fellow developers

Technologies We Use:

  • Go

  • Typescript

  • React

  • CircleCI/GitHub Actions
