Software Engineer - Platform
### 我们是谁
我们的使命是为世界上最复杂的代码库带来清晰度和控制力。人工智能正在加速代码的创建，但理解、监督和演进这些代码的基础设施却没有跟上步伐。Sourcegraph 为工程组织提供了对其系统全面的可见性，为其代理提供精确的上下文，并能够大规模执行协调的代码更改。随着代理式开发成为主导的工程范式，我们为团队提供了他们需要的上下文层，以掌控其代码库。
通过代码搜索、深度搜索、MCP 和代理批量更改，我们今天就实现了这一使命——为工程团队及其 AI 工具提供跨仓库的上下文，使他们能够自信地在庞大的代码库中导航，并一次对数百个仓库进行更改。
Stripe、Reddit 和 Leidos 等公司依赖 Sourcegraph 来更快、更高质量地交付产品。我们得到了 a16z、Sequoia 和 Redpoint 的支持，自豪地作为一家全球分布式团队运营，重视高自主性、直接沟通和客户喜爱。
如果你希望构建让每个工程团队——以及他们部署的每个代理——都能自信操作其代码库的基础设施，请加入我们。

### Who we are
Our mission is to bring clarity and control to the world's most complex codebases. AI is accelerating code creation, but the infrastructure to understand, oversee, and evolve that code hasn't kept pace. Sourcegraph gives engineering organizations full visibility across their systems, precise context for their agents, and the ability to execute coordinated code changes at scale. As agentic development becomes the dominant engineering paradigm, we provide the context layer teams need to take control of their codebase.
With Code Search, Deep Search, MCP, and Agentic Batch Changes, we deliver on that mission today - giving engineering teams and their AI tools the cross-repo context to navigate massive codebases with confidence, and the ability to make changes across hundreds of repositories at once.
Companies like Stripe, Reddit, and Leidos rely on Sourcegraph to ship faster and with higher quality. We're backed by a16z, Sequoia, and Redpoint, and proud to operate as a globally distributed team that values high agency, direct communication, and customer love.
If you want to build the infrastructure that lets every engineering team - and every agent they deploy - operate on their codebase with confidence, join us.
### **Hours & location**
🌎 While we hire [almost anywhere](https://sourcegraph.notion.site/How-we-engage-talent-outside-of-the-US-218f7193695a46cbb1ef39ef9c1f72d4) in the world, we have a preference for someone to reside in the following locations for this role. However, if you feel qualified, we welcome you to apply regardless of location. No matter what, working hours must overlap with EST for at least 20 hours/week.
**Preferred locations:**
- EST
- Europe
### **Why this job is exciting**
Source code is at the heart of Sourcegraph. We support multiple code hosts and retrieve, store, index, and serve source code - to end users, admins, and other internal services.
This role gives you the opportunity to solve complex, challenging, and highly technical problems for our customers, both internally and externally, help unleash the potential and productivity of our Engineering teams, and delight our customers with industry-leading quality software.
The Platform team primarily focuses on building a fully managed platform for using Sourcegraph, Sourcegraph Cloud, our SaaS offering. As a member of the Platform team, you will work closely with both external customers and internal stakeholders to meet their needs. You will:
- Develop inter-cloud connectivity solutions to support enterprise customers from highly regulated industries to use Sourcegraph Cloud.
- Build a control plane to orchestrate a fleet of single-tenant Sourcegraph Cloud instances.
- Expose complex infrastructure as API to support internal customers to iterate faster.
- Dive into upstream dependencies (e.g., CDK for Terraform, Terraform providers for GCP) to debug and patch non-trivial problems.
- Be an advocate for building reliable services and work with leadership to help product teams achieve operational excellence.
- Participate in on-call rotation to uphold our contractual SLA commitments.
📅 Within one month, you will…
- Onboard onto the Sourcegraph architecture, tooling, and development workflow.
- Build a solid understanding of the team’s areas of ownership, technical challenges, and problems the team solves for our customers, and know how all of these align with the top-level company goals.
- Actively participate in team meetings, sharing ideas and insights to contribute to the overall team goals.
- Start contributing to the team goals and deliverables by shipping new features, debugging issues, and fixing bugs.
📅 Within three months, you will…
- Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of the Cloud infrastructure, its underlying technologies, and its integration within the Sourcegraph ecosystem.
- Lead initiatives contributing to team goals through both discovery and delivery phases, collaborating directly with product and design partners, other engineering teams, and non-technical stakeholders from different departments.
- Contribute to the architectural design and implementation of new features or improvements, actively shaping the future direction of Cloud infrastructure based on customer needs.
- Lead initiatives contributing to team goals on the roadmap by going through the entire product development lifecycle discovery, design, implementation, and delivery.
- Participate in our on-call rotation.
📅 Within six months, you will…
- Be defining long-term technical vision and strategies for new product development, scaling existing services, and managing technical debt. These plans will consist of multiple smaller milestones that you will deliver iteratively with the team.
- Collaborate with the Engineering Manager on defining the team’s growth strategy based on the long-term product vision, the technical vision, and the team’s needs.
- Seek feedback from customers and stakeholders to identify opportunities for further improvements or new features, actively iterating on the Cloud infrastructure to ensure it continues to meet our high bar.
### **About you**
You bring a product mindset in balancing architectural flexibility and philosophy with meeting immediate customer demand. You are an experienced software engineer who seeks to solve problems by writing code rather than through one-off operations. You are passionate about user experience and self-service. You balance maintaining and designing high-impact systems with a pragmatic understanding of how to make appropriate tradeoffs (e.g., cut scope, low-tech vs. custom complex solutions) to ship quickly and iterate when necessary.
Qualifications:
- Proficiency in Go, or other strongly typed languages.
- Knowledge in one of the public cloud platform providers (GCP, AWS, Azure)
- Experience with Terraform (or similar IaC solutions) and Kubernetes to build tooling and automation.
- Skilled at debugging distributed systems, followed by designing and implementing solutions to those problems. This means you should know your way around various OS-level primitives, e.g., network, CPU, and memory.
- Ability to communicate clearly and empathetically, especially in writing and documentation.
- Preferred time zone between UTC-8 and UTC+2
Nice to haves:
- Built services and exposed them as API for external consumption (e.g., gRPC).
- Comfortable implementing system-level software (e.g., custom transport protocol) if needed or has contributed to Kubernetes controllers/operators.
- Published blog posts and/or tech talks about your work.
- Experience working on small high-performing teams, preferably tech startups.
