Aptible exists to simplify cloud infrastructure for every developer at every company. We envision a world where any developer can use Aptible to quickly unblock themselves, without having to wait on others to build or implement tools for them.
Our Commitment to Diversity and InclusionWe see great value in bringing together a team with different perspectives, educational backgrounds, and life experiences, and we prioritize diversity within our team. We encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply.
As a Staff Software Engineer at Aptible, you’ll be a technical leader for an ambitious, business-critical Product Engineering Team. You’ll play a pivotal role in evolving our successful Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) product and building new features towards “Platform 2.0” — our vision for a solution that provides even greater value to engineering teams facing challenges related to security automation, access management, cost controls, developer self-service, on-call and incident response. In this role, you’ll work with a highly collaborative team to craft solutions that propel Aptible forward and, ultimately, empower developers worldwide.
What You'll DoAs a Staff Software Engineer at Aptible, you may work on:
Building the foundational control plane of Platform 2.0, which will give us sufficient visibility and access to disparate infrastructure (delivery, hosting and observability planes) so that we can successfully offer features that previously depended on us fully managing that underlying infrastructure.
Rapidly experimenting on new and better features for problems like security automation, access management, cost controls, developer self-service, on-call and incident response.
Refining and optimizing our hosting solution to better meet the unique needs of a more focused customer segment.
Typical Experience: 10+ Years of Experience in Software Engineering (Bonus: You have experience in the developer tools space.)
Technical Expertise
You have strong Software Engineering fundamentals and coding ability, and expertise in cloud infrastructure or distributed systems.
You have experience building integrations with Kubernetes, e.g. controllers or operators, not just deploying to k8s.
You are a strong technical designer of complex systems. You design for both speed and longevity, breaking down projects into high-impact milestones that balance scrappy execution with long-term scalability.
You are a prolific and thoughtful developer in at least one mainstream language, and have the ability to easily pick up new ones.
Product Taste: You have a strong track record as an expert in the products you’ve built, and as a go-to resource for Product Design and Product Management during early feature and product planning.
Startup Compatibility: You have a strong interest in joining a small, highly collaborative Engineering Team of 7P, and a track record of success in navigating a high degree of ambiguity.
You want to do hands-on implementation, as opposed to only architecting solutions.
You want to write full stack code, and are not tied to a specific language or technology.
You have a strong interest in — if not a passion for — building developer tooling.
We want to make the experience of interviewing with us as delightful, efficient, fair, respectful, and transparent as possible. A typical process at Aptible might include the following steps. Please note that this may vary by role, and details will be provided to you early on in the process.
