3 months ago

About the team

On the Consul team, we develop tools for service discovery, config management, and health monitoring. Our customers place a high level of trust in us, relying on our tools to operate their own infrastructure and software effectively, so we care deeply about reliability and performance. At HashiCorp, we value top-notch collaboration and communication skills, both among internal teams and in how we interact with our users. We take care to balance and be responsive to the needs of our open source community as well as our enterprise level customers. Engineering at HashiCorp is largely a remote team. While prior experience working remotely isn't required, we are looking for team members who perform well given a high level of independence and autonomy.

In this role, you can expect to: 

  • Work on next-generation distributed systems for infrastructure management
  • Develop novel algorithms within the context of our open source tools
  • Build and architect systems for managing extremely large-scale global fleets of resources
  • Interface directly with internal teams, users and HashiCorp customers, as well as the large Consul community
  • Own the full lifecycle of feature development from design through testing and release
  • Program mostly in Golang, learning from and contributing to a team committed to continually improving their skills

What you’ll need for this role: 

  • Familiarity with service-oriented architectures, and ideally have seen them in operation at a global scale
  • Be comfortable with low-level programming
  • Prior experience working in high performance or distributed systems; while we strive to hire at a variety of experience levels, this particular opening is not well-suited for recent graduates
  • Ability to knowledgeably discuss performance, security, and user interactions in complex systems
  • Strong written communication skills, and you understand how to use tools like code review to asynchronously unblock and level up your peers
  • 3+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Experience programming in Go is a plus, though not required
