Staff Software Engineer, SDKs & Open Source

Job Overview

We're hiring a Staff Engineer to set the technical direction for everything the team owns, and to mentor the senior engineers who build it, starting with our SDKs in Go, JavaScript, .NET, Python, Java and more.

Key points

  1. Define and drive the technical direction for FGA DevEx across open source and SaaS, and turn it into a roadmap with the engineering manager…

  2. Build support for that direction across the team, the FGA group and open source community.

  3. Mentor the team's senior engineers, and raise the level of everyone around you.

  4. Establish how a new team builds software, from design reviews and coding standards to how we test and ship, and set the quality bar.

  5. Strong proficiency in at least one of Go, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#/.NET, Python or Java, and the curiosity to work across several.

  6. Experience building software other developers use: SDKs, API clients, libraries, developer platforms, CLIs or tooling.

  7. A strong sense of API design and ergonomics, and of how an interface should feel in different languages.

  8. Clear communication and a track record of influencing decisions across teams and with outside contributors, without relying on authority.
